Unfortunately there's no money in privacy, and a lot of money in either outright selling data or cutting costs to the bare minimum required to avoid legal liability.

Wife and I are expecting our third child, and despite my not doing much googling or research into it (we already know a lot from the first two) the algorithms across the board found out somehow. Even my instagram "Explore" tab that I accidentally select every now and then started getting weirdly filled with pictures of pregnant women.

It is what it is at this point. Also I finally got my last settlement check from Equifax, which paid for Chipotle. Yay!
