You can make fun, but it's a huge business for companies that deal in metadata.
x2 it's a big business already, and going to be worse than anything we've seen before it gets better.
case in point, China's new "social score" system. It'll take a while to go global but it will, and it will be terrible.
Ooooooooooooooh....I'm skeered. Between the 3 Samsung TV's, the amount of online stuff I've done for @ 25 years, and the cameras on the security system connected to a place I've never seen nor even know where it is or who works there, I am shocked. I'm surprised my life savings were not taken, other bank accounts drained, and my identity stolen every other week. I'll have to go looking for the data transmitting discounted Sammies, I could use another. While I'm at it I may as well ditch the tinfoil hat and fashion one from some 1/4" diamond plate.
Used to work with a kook who bought into all this Orwellian metadata psychosis BS. Interestingly he was a Facebook and Youtube addict and used his real full name on those and on forums, along with posting his street address all over the net. I often wondered why he didn't post up some important numbers too like SS and CC or bank account #'s. I will keep making fun and ROTFLMA about the direction of this entire thread. Only here.
