Hmm maybe I’m just desensitized, but what are they going to do with that information? Going to try and sell me stupid shit?

Right now in the US? Not much outside of try to sell you stupid shit.

But the capability in the data is there for an authoritarian regime to do quite a lot to you as a result of the information.

So you know - if there was any pending threat of a narcissistic psychopath upending the government you might be concerned over what insights into individual mindsets can be accomplished with the data available…
