    Sure. My point is that it’s irrelevant. You’re acting like there’s a trade off between privacy and the public good, but because the goal is profitability we get neither privacy nor public good.

    I would love to live in a world where my phone data was used for the public good. That’s not what happens.

      Oh I agree. My original comment was adding to the one preceeding mine, not a direct response to the article. Yes, the US needs GDPR, despite it making aspects of my job annoying I am glad it exists.
