I went on a site the other day, and a massive popup appeared before I could do anything.

"We Respect Your Privacy"

1200+ "data partners".

Big blue "Accept" button.

Yeah, no you don't.

"We value your privacy... At about $10,000"

[–] Etienne_Dahu@jlai.lu 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Oh no, more about $2

[–] cone_zombie@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

More like $0,02

[–] bigFab@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

Big brown 'Eat 💩' button

They mean we respect your privacy because we were forced to and we whined and bitched about it the whole time.
