This suggests they have other ways of tracking individuals, other than the device we all hold in our hands. If they still needed the access to track us, they would pay for it. Are we to assume the need for such data is obselete?
If they want to track a mobile phone they certainly can by presenting a subpoena to the legal compliance officer at the Telcom.
I’d not be surprised if they just had some other way to obtain the data, that’s more reliable anyway. By legislating against it, maybe they dodge some contractual obligations idk, there’s a million possibilities. That’s a paranoid perspective.
In reality, I assume if I’m on the internet, or out in public, something somewhere is probably collecting data on me. Maybe that data is being linked somewhere, maybe it isn’t. I believe privacy will be history soon. I think this will ultimately be a good thing.
You called my comment paranoid, but you state that privacy will soon be history. That didn’t sound paranoid to you, in your head, before you typed it?
Oh my mistake, I was saying my take was paranoid.
Am I understanding you correctly that you think privacy won’t exist in the future? Lord, I hope that’s not the world we end up in. Otherwise 1984 will have been absolutely right.
I think you meant to reply to the other comment, and not mine. I didn’t say anything about privacy ending.
I think you are right. My bad
Why
That answer would be a lot more obvious if the erosion started with the rich.
However, the data is still commercialy available.
