It doesnt sound really important, but on a larger scale of things, that is information that can be used to completely track your life down to every last detail. And what would that be used for? If you only knew... Look at the big picture...
aka you have no idea.
If someone knew every small detail about your life, how easy would it be to predict what you are going to do next, or even what you're thinking about when you see a certain image? I'm not going to go into small details, because I find that argueing stuff like this is often useless, but "do your own research and then form your own opinion about our government and society" is the best advice I can give you.
And you're right. "The more you know, the more you know that you dont know anything."
You mean...targeted advertisements? Honestly, ANYTHING you put on Facebook you did so willingly, for the most part(besides tagged pictures). You chose to put what music you like, movies, sports, etc. Other than targeted advertisements, you still haven't explained to me "this picture." What exactly is the man going to do with a video of me chugging a pitcher of beer? Enslave me?
Honestly it's all about creating a formula ... that better predicts actions and impulses .... while taking into account minute differences ...... the best way to do so is simply collecting a large amount of data regardless how insignificant the individual might believe it too be ...
.
.
It all breaks down too how can I get you to do what I want you to do without you knowing it ...... meaning how best to limit one's choices without that person ever realizing what I'm doing .... so the outcome could best serve me ...... who that ME is .. is up for debate ... as well as the purpose this all serves in the end
Well said.
