Hmm. Are you aware that I was responding to this comment?
> Why do people use obvious spyware when free software exists?
So, even though the poster was referring to ByteDance when they said "obvious spyware", I was feigning incomprehension in order to ask the question, how do we differentiate ByteDance from what Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon (and the rest) do.
It's a real question - why do technical people, who arguably should know better, and can do something about it - continue to use these data-harvesting and user-selling platforms? The answer is obvious when it's the case of an employee of those companies, I grant you that.
My apologies if you feel your response did address that, and I missed it. If so, please help me see what I missed.
