      But before that, when it was not acknowledged by social media, it was more like ’ you’re paranoid. And you think you’re that important that they listen to you? Common, get back to reality ’

          I knew they had to be doing this so I turned off all mic permissions. One day it pissed me off so much I started keeping my phone off completely unless I needed to use it

          It might be an easy to just stop using Facebook really.

          I’ve had enough time to work out which of my relatives are racist, so I don’t really need it anymore.

      It’s the reverse. Non tech people believe the snake oil, tech people know this is snake oil.
