It’s not paranoia if it’s real.
“US Companies Are Selling Your Personal Data — to the Government!”
LOL, I remember some people on this site thinking they could actually TRUST large companies not to spy on them. So, when they find out that Wells Fargo is spying on them, they feel smug because they have Bank of America. LOL.
Idiots!
(and no, I’m not referring to you, Nick)
Can’t sell much of my personal data, nor would anyone want it. I get Social Security, and a State Government Pension, own nothing, no property, no investments, no savings. Nada! If they wanted to watch me, they’d have to be satisfied with my running to the bathroom 15 times a day.
I used TaxAct for ten years, until I found out they were selling customer data. I now use my company’s tax program, a nice employee benefit. We don’t sell anything to the government. Our C suite are personally involved in over 150 partnerships, last thing they’re going to do is increase their visibility with the IRS.
They’re not selling my data.
I use Linux. No Apple here, no Google here, and no Windows.
I’m free!
