I honestly feel defeated right now, it feels like currently it's impossible to truly stay private online unless one is willing to move to a cabin in the woods with no internet and you stop using tech all together and truly become a ghost and stay offline. Can someone help me feel like everything I am currently doing is actually making a difference? Because right now it doesn't feel like it.

I've resisted making an account at Walgreens for years and years. The last time I went in there, the prices for things I wanted were literally double if I didn't give them a rewards number. Fucking ridiculous.

Its a shit choice between paying with your money vs paying with your data.
