I’m getting a bit sick of large corporations a) demanding excess data as a condition of doing business with me, b) allowing it to be stolen, and c) giving zero fucks about it.

What are some things that us netizens can do to make our displeasure known.

Extra points for funny ideas.

    Make your data useless or wrong.

    More passively, there’s probably an oddly large amount of John Does born on January 1, 2000 ;)

    More offensively, anti-image-gen data poisoning such as Nightshade exists. It’s well-defended against IIRC so hopefully someone can Cunningham’s Law correct me. And this is also more solo of a movement (as opposed to gaining mass support for something)
