This is 100% the experience I have had. Could not vibe harder with this.
Most of the time people have paid a premium for their new watch, camera, door bell, service and you try to point out that it connecting to the cloud or AI is overly complicated and not required for the result they are so happy about. You go on to say that the company is probably selling, exploiting and using that data to minipulating you… But you just come off as unhinged.
There is nothing good about america atm the only benifit is that there are some really good examples of why “I’ve got nothing to hide” is deeply flawed. This helps cut through to normal people.
