And the worst part ist that those parents had a childhood free of any intrusions of their own privacy. If they had been under surveillance in the same fashion they do it to their kids, one could argue that they don’t know any better. In my opinion, marketing and fear mongering play an important role here.

I am so gratful that I (early millennial) have been born and raised at a time where this tracking and surveillance bullshit wasn’t around at all. I estimate my parents would have had a blast when these things were readily availiable.
