We can't really stop the Data Economy. If we're bleeding data all over the place then we can only maintain good habits of data hygiene. But then we know that will never be perfect. Some fingerprints will always remain, some breadcrumbs will always be hoovered up by the bots.

I use adblockers and vpns and other such things but then I have accounts with facebooks and whatsapps. Could I camouflage my 'scent' with perfume? What's more - could I feed misleading data in? I really wouldn't mind being a VIP in the eyes of these shitty algorithms.
