How pleased were we not with the convenience of gaining access to information quickly, shopping seamlessly, and connecting and interacting instantly?

Yet, how did we not realize that the same data we provided and gave away freely without a second thought is now precisely what is being used against us to share biased information and target us with ads and unwarranted misinformation?

We offered ourselves up, and now we pay the price. These were our choices since we rarely, if ever, reviewed the terms and conditions with the desire for immediate gratification, perpetual connectivity, and dopamine hits.
