When WhatsApp recently proposed certain changes in their privacy policy in certain parts of the world,
There was an outrage.
And this further has triggered a rush to the possible alternatives, which are just a few.
What purported as empowering,
Technology has entrenched deep in our lives.
And worse, has enslaved us. What we do, what we eat, where we go, whom we meet, …
Our actions, our movements are tracked and documented.
Monitored and monetized,
As that was not enough,
It has captivated our brains, our thinking, and our ability to think.
A few techno-oligarch are set to rule the billions.
At times they entice the gullible,
And at times they connive with the tyrants.
Privacy is a privilege – too precious to afford! |
