Why do we continue to be ok with this? Where is the outrage and call for change?

the overwhelming bulk of humanity cant be fucked to care about shit like this… until it personally affects them.

Then they will wail like banshees about the great injustice of it all, and how could anyone let it happen to them.

Because it works and provides a use case. Most “simpletons” do not want to invest any more time in than putting some Account Data and start watching netflix or whatever. “We” (e.g. the people that care about data privacy and stuff) never have been okay with that shit…
