However, many people still believe that these companies are acting in their best interest. This misconception largely stems from an overconfidence in corporate promises—companies often make bold claims about how much they care about consumer privacy or user rights. One of the most common promises is the guarantee of full confidentiality for their users. These companies assure customers that their personal data is protected, and that their communications or activities will remain private. +We’ve already discussed the significant power that states have over private companies. +However, many people still believe that these companies are acting in their best interest. +This misconception largely stems from an overconfidence in corporate promises—companies +often make bold claims about how much they care about consumer privacy or user rights. +One of the most common promises is the guarantee of full confidentiality for their users. +These companies assure customers that their personal data is protected, and their communications or activities private. -However, the reality is often very different.

The scandal revealed that Facebook had failed to protect its users’ privacy and was under intense political and legal pressure, especially as governments like the U.S. and the U.K. sought to ensure that their political campaigns could benefit from large-scale data collection and targeted ads. Facebook’s failure to safeguard privacy not only breached user trust but also showed how private companies can be complicit in political manipulation, especially when government agencies or political campaigns have access to user data. Facebook's relationship with government agencies and political groups demonstrates how private companies can be coerced into violating user privacy under the guise of political interests, all while claiming to protect users’ data. -*Interesting reading* +### Further Reading Book: "Zucked: Waking Up to the Facebook Catastrophe" by Roger McNamee @@ -209,7 +197,7 @@ Book: "Zucked: Waking Up to the Facebook Catastrophe" by Roger McNamee ## Should states services be used ? -The short answer is no, using public services does not make you freer.

By providing these services, the state can maintain the illusion that it is essential and irreplaceable. Every time you use something offered by the state, you are effectively giving them a new means to track and control your actions. Take, for example, public transportation. Even in a country like Germany, where public transit is relatively affordable, using services such as buses or trains still requires you to use a pass, which can be tracked.
