Well, there is more to the question than that

`Most people would not be okay with a stranger on the street recording their daily routine and selling that recording to another person, but turn a blind eye when the software they use does essentially the same thing. What makes their software different?`

My opinions on the activities of companies and their ethics bases on whether it affects me

Essentially

For the selling of information, I'd want that company torn to the ground and it's CEO whipped

For say, using cheap overseas labour in questionable conditions

Idc really

And i think that's how it is for all of the west, abuse all but ourselves

based and redpilled

I think the question of user privacy is one of the things that presents the greatest challenge to the libertarian worldview that goes along the lines of "If a company does bad things, people will stop using that company's services"

It's also unavoidable, too

Having your data sold

Windows 10 doesn't give you a complete opt out option, you can only opt out of *most* of the tracking Microsoft carries out

I have to use discord to connect with my classmates (on a different account), though that isn't as good of an example since it doesn't apply to everyone

Certain jobs require you to use certain software

software which might track you

Windows 10 being one of the most obvious examples

Also, Android logs a lot

I don't know how far Apple goes, but they claim they are more privacy friendly, but you can't always trust that, let's say even if that's true

iPhones are out of reach for many people, and Android is their only option for a smart phone, unless you expect them to get a shitty flip phone which you can hardly get away with these days
