The case for tech companies knowing more about us
Original: I wish tech companies knew more about me
A new essay by developer Rakhim Diafutdinov makes an unusual argument: instead of the usual complaints about surveillance, the author wishes tech companies knew more about him. The piece argues that better knowledge of users could mean fewer irrelevant ads, less junk content and services that actually fit people's lives, a contrarian take in a debate usually framed entirely around privacy.
Why now: It inverts the standard privacy debate at a time when data collection and targeted advertising are under constant criticism
