What harm does public data have to you? Couldn’t one just ignore the ads? You can’t see anyone watching you, is public data good for public records? (I’m just curious). I know this sounds weird but is public data good for historical preservation and knowledge increasing the importance of the individual? And does public data lead to better products?
Great analogy. There’s no shame in wearing underwear or showing it to people.
But how would you feel about someone digging through your underwear without your consent?
