Re: People don't listen
I tell people all of the time that "Social Media" is a treasure trove for nefarious individuals. The usual reply is "It won't happen to me" or "I am too smart for my information to get out". When will they learn. If businesses can make money out of their information the business will sell it to the highest bidder (or anyone that is prepared to pay what is being asked).
Yes, those smart people who don't realise that even if THEY are careful, they cannot prevent the abuse of that giant barn size backdoor in privacy law: you can't prevent your "friends" giving away your data. That was, for instance, in my opinion, the goal of WhatsApp et al: grabbing address books.
