I haven’t finished watching it, but it has some very interesting data points on privacy and how your privacy is being exposed even when you think it isn’t.

    Poison and noise are the way. Making a sandwich for those you love. It will be not fruitful to pay the humans it would take to undo it and make it useful, and they were off to take the ring to mordor. And it might just end up making them pay people to just ingest fact, unlike the clowns in the sewers this one had a red balloon. Hell they could just buy the books and pay people correctly like the system was made before the purple people eater was walking downtown.

    Worthwhile yet tricky. Companies like OpenAI, Google, Meta, etc are full of experts in statistics and they have access to a lot of storage space. If use a service from those companies, say 4hrs per day between 7am and 9pm, at a certain frequency, e.g. 10 requests / hour, then suddenly, when you realize you actually do not trust them with your data, you do 10000 req/hr for 1hr then that’s a suspect pattern. Then might be able to rollback until before that “freak” event automatically. They might still present you as a user your data with the changes but not in their internal databases.

    So… I’m not saying it’s not a good idea, nor useful, but I bet doing it properly is hard. It’s probably MUCH harder than do a GDPR (or equivalent) take out request then deletion request AND avoiding all services that might leverage your data from these providers.

        Freedom to be exploited or exploit others even harder for “success”.

        Sarcasm aside there are state equivalents, e.g. CCPA.
