      lol no. It’s just going to get worse. Companies gobble up s as much info s as they can, it’s profitable, protecting it, less so. Not to mention ai, both from the standpoint of people creating systems they don’t understand, and from the other side where hacking with ai assistance is easier.

      We need to change the systems and structure of the world to make any meaningful progress

        That’s all this comes down too. The data has value to them and their shareholders. Paying money to secure it is a cost that they want to minimize
