You Live In The Cloud
Imagine if your country held a national referendum on whether most citizens should be forced to upload all their private photos and personal documentation, and store them in a centralized library, available to the government, but which you know criminals can also access.
Would anyone vote for it, even if there was technically an annoying way to opt out?
As ridiculous as it sounds, it's what you've done to yourself over the last ten years, empowering Big Tech.
Of course, you did not think that way, but you voted 'yes' for the referendum.
Do-it-yourself encryption of your data is one of the solutions.
