    From August Abolins@1:153/757.21 to All on Sunday, September 05, 2021 23:46:00
    Hello All!

    "Every minute of every day, our data is harvested and
    exploited. It is time to pull the plug on the surveillance
    economy.

    "Governments and hundreds of corporations are spying on you,
    and everyone you know. They're not just selling your data.
    They're selling the power to influence you and decide for you.
    Even when you've explicitly asked them not to.

    "Reclaiming privacy is the only way we can regain control of
    our lives and our societies. These governments and corporations
    have too much power, and their power stems from us--from our
    data. Privacy is as collective as it is personal, and it's time
    to take back control.

    "Privacy Is Power tells you how to do exactly that. It calls
    for the end of the data economy and proposes concrete measures
    to bring that end about, offering practical solutions, both for
    policymakers and ordinary citizens.
