Every time you click “Accept Cookies,” a piece of your life goes into the cloud. We live in the surveillance era—where convenience has a price, and that price is you.
The Illusion of Choice
We think we’re choosing to share our data—but really, we’re being cornered. Want to use an app? Share your location. Want to pay online? Give your biometric data. Our personal information has become the new oil—mined, refined, and sold.
Big Tech’s Watchful Eyes
Companies like Meta, Google, and TikTok know more about you than your best friend does. They predict your habits, emotions, and even the time you’ll feel hungry. Data is now the most profitable resource on Earth.
The New Normal of Digital Surveillance
Governments use data for control, corporations use it for profit, and users trade it for comfort. We scroll, click, and stream without realizing the magnitude of what we’re giving away.
Can We Regain Control?
Yes, but it requires awareness. Use VPNs, read privacy policies (seriously), and think before you post. Convenience is good—but freedom is better.
Conclusion
Privacy isn’t dead yet—but it’s on life support. The question is, do we care enough to resuscitate it?
