  • This is 100% the dystopian reality we are heading for. Maybe not in the near-term future but, there is no way that eventually corporate greed and shareholder gains won’t reach a point that this has to become the reality. They are simply leaving too much money on the table by not doing it.

    I think our only saving grace is that the laws haven’t been defined enough yet to prevent this from happening. But I have to imagine to some degree it already is. Just look at the way driving telemetry is being sold to auto insurance providers in the States already. If the information is out there, someone will get their hands in it and use it to manipulate the price of something.

    I have known and been friends with a few people in the sex work trade throughout the years and generally they didn’t end up there because they came from solid foundational bedrocks of self-care and self-advocacy growing up.

    Of course, that’s not to say that my anecdotal experience is empirical, but I’d wager reality sways a little closer to what I’ve seen than the opposite.
