There is very little danger of your fork advertising you, or your spoon selling your data to the highest bidder. Using non-free software involves a ton of trust in the companies that produce them. Using free software without auditing it also involves trust, but less (because at least it's possible to audit!)

I should add that I don’t care at all about my data being sold (to the highest bidder or otherwise). I also have a personal policy of paying for subscriptions (ad-free when possible) when they’re available.

But if something changes and I have to switch then I have to switch.

Not worth worrying about today!

Even if you pay for it, there's really nothing stopping closed source software from selling your data. Especially Saas offerings.

>>bigfis+zp
Yes and I literally don’t care if they sell my data.

It's not a logical fallacy if I believe it.

>>paulco+ED6
It's not a fallacy. You just don't understand that it's not about you but about the society and democracy.

Sorry you must’ve shared the wrong link. The one you did share has this as the first sentence:

> The nothing to hide argument is a logical fallacy

Let me know which link I should be looking at that isn’t a fallacy.
