What a rotten #capitalist system. "Everything goes" and ironically, everybody who has something meaningful to give back to society is broke at the same time because it is that minimalist and decadent capitalist system with its stupid monetary policies that refuses to budge for us. The lunatics leading this Ship of Fools have spent so much money on war and funding the billionaires' projects (DoD and military spending) while the companies have invested so much in surveillance capitalism to make the billionaires wealthy it's amazing we still have anything left of the incredible shrinking middle class.

Extraction – Companies harvest data from your behavior: clicks, searches, location, purchases, even how long you pause on a video.
Analysis – That raw #data gets processed to predict and influence future behavior (what you'll buy, click, watch, or believe).
Monetization – These predictions are sold, mainly to advertisers, but also to other buyers interested in shaping behavior.
