    I think one of the unique things about being a millennial is we are more adapted to having a lot of technology in our lives than gen x, but we also grew up with less surveillance and have watched it blow up, so we experience more paranoia than gen z. Hence the focus on privacy and FOSS. I know a few gen z’s and they have all lightly mocked me for not using Tik Tok/Snapchat “because of privacy, right?” Not that all gen z’s don’t care, but when you grow up under constant surveillance it’s hard to give a fuck, lack of privacy is the norm.
