Normie: "Facebook is stealing my data through WhatsApp!"
Me: "How about you switch to a decentralized alternative?"
Normie: "Fuck that! I'll just make a mock account on Facebook!"
Me: "That won't do anything. They'll still know who you are through your phone"
Normie: "Then I will make a WhatsApp mockup account! They won't know it's me!"
Me: "Oh, really? Will you also provide a fake, probably stolen phone number too? Will you use a proxy, TOR, I2P, or at least a VPN to hide your IP address? Will you also route your DNS queries through TOR or at least a safe enough DNS server over HTTPS? Will you also root your device and spoof your MAC address, as well as your IMEI, phone brand, model, serial number, OS version, AND your WLAN SSID? Will also ALL of your contacts do the exact same thing, so that they don't know who is who and who is contacting who? Will you at least give a fake name?"
Normie: "... Fuck that shit! I'm switching to Telegram!"
