I do care. Because my privacy is dear to me. In fact, every individual has the right to protect their personal data and should have the ‘choice’ to decide, who they want to share their data with. In the so-called ‘free’ world that’s the least one should get; their Freedom of Choice’. But, when my data get exploited by online giants and e-commerce sites, I feel helpless. They sure have their own argument to support their action, but as a free individual, I don’t like to be haunted by ‘Flight Ticket Sale Ads’ on my social channels, just because I looked up a holiday destination on the search engine! That’s just crazy! In the name of ‘convenience’, that’s nothing but ‘cyber-stalking’! And this is a very basic example I am sharing with you all, I am sure you know that. We can’t even think what the data-hubs or Government Agencies do or try to do, by exploiting our personal data.
