I agree. It's not just a matter of one social media platform or another, one company, or one government or another. This is pervasive, and it's been growing for a generation.
What do we do about it? How do we stop it?
Yes, it's education starting at the very youngest ages. Is it too late to put the genie back in the bottle? No. There is so much information about each of us floating out there that we don't even realize that we individually are at a loss. Corporately, people who are procurement officers, who know as much or as little as most people, are at the mercy of the vendors. They're not interested in your privacy. They're interested in their commission, their bottom line and their shareholders benefiting.
