Holy balls we are living in the wild west era of the internet.
Shit needs to be regulated.
Just I’m not super confident regulation will come in the form of mandatory encryption at rest, end-to-end encryption by default and only not when necessary, banning selling data to 3rd parties, being able to quickly and speedily unban unjustly banned accounts by regulator intervention (like this one).
Terms of service are bullshit when our entire digital identities are attached to emails.
Looking around, the regulation we’ll see will instead be in the form “nothing to fear if you’ve got nothing to hide.”
I can daydream, though.
