I may be in the minority on this forum but I am not worried about the information that I willingly provide private corporations. The corporations that have my data continue to exist because people find their products valuable. When people talk about the power Google or Facebook have, they speak as though these are companies that have been around for hundreds of years amassing ever more power. I feel like I have more choices than ever as to the services I use and the power of these corporations is very fickle. Apple has lost over 10% of their value since this year began and about 25% in the last 6 months simply because expectations are that they are losing favor in the public, or at least that&#x27;s my hypothesis. Every generation had a different country or corporation that they were afraid of.<p>And then we have the Congress in US with an approval rating in the teens and a re-election rate in the 90s [0].  Since there appears to be little accountability in the public sector and the monopoly on violence the government holds, I am much more concerned about that.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.opensecrets.org&#x2F;bigpicture&#x2F;reelect.php" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.opensecrets.org&#x2F;bigpicture&#x2F;reelect.php</a>
