#farmer #data #privacy #quicktake Another short one, and also quiet

Lyrics

When you said that you worked on a farm I thought you meant you worked the land Yet you really work the people Data privacy is getting out of hand

Getting harder and harder to refuse Opting in by default All to sell us things we don't really want Every pixel of data abused

I might be seen as a luddite I couldn't really care People should be more than just crops To enrich obnoxious billionaires. Please stop!

I’m not for sale, oh please stop Please stop.

Very nice treatment of a serious problem. You missed the part where the "farmers" are relying on people theymve subverted, to make you feel like a luddite: you aren't. They've deliberately choked off alternatives by offering services they call free, because they don't cost $. And you can't tell the real price you pay. It isn't just goods and services, it's also political views they're manipulating.
