My mom claims there is no problems into being tracked and stuff and that “Every normal person will use gmail”;

My brother says you only should hide your data if you are a criminal or something.

      But how to argue against? I once said, in Europe you have the right to get all the information deleted. Guess why they established this law?

        That information becomes less value the older it is. If you go dark all of a sudden tomorrow, that information will be worth a small fraction in a year. And there’s the old saying: “The best time to plant a tree is 30 years ago. The second best time is now.”

          Then why do they keep it? The collect so much data and keep it all. Then when there is a leak it’s worse cause they have so much “useless” data.

          No it isn’t. And it is a fairly new concept. And privacy from what there is really no way to be totally private unless you move to the woods and never interact with anyone else. I’ve heard people complain about their neighbours know what they are doing on here and there is no way to prevent that kind of stuff if your interacting with other people even in person.
