Almost everything based in technology spies on everyone now a days and most people are alright with it. I don’t understand why people are okay knowing this spying exists. Louis Rossman does a great job here showing us the disgusting tactics used by big corporations to gaslight people into believing them over what these companies are really nefariously up to.
Remember there is a difference between spying and monitoring based on consent. If I ask the police to put up security cameras on my street due to crime that is monitoring, if someone hides a camera in a tree and aims it at my house that is spying.
If someone hides what they’re “monitoring”, and what theyre doing with it, from you in vague definitions and legalese ToS, it’s still spying.
You hire a security guard to monitor your street and he has his binoculars pointed at bedroom windows most of the night, which one is that? Those windows ARE on the street to monitor.
