"If a business model wouldn’t work if users had to opt in, it deserves to fail." (last line of the article)
Since the invisible hand of the free internet appears to be arthritic, a more visible hand (fist?) is necessary. And we have it in the way of request blockers such as uBlock Origin, wich can compleltely block Facebook's and Google's tracking in their tracks. As more and more people turn to subversive solutions such as privacy oriented request blockers and ad blockers, we may finally turn things around.
My hope is on an open source browser that is entirely privacy oriented, easy to use and adopt by non-technical users.
