Later on when the "good guys" have a change in leadership to someone who's just a bit more ruthlessly profit-driven, they already have all your data.
My Wingstop orders? Sure. Once again, WHO FUCKING CARES. I don't use social media for anything but sharing memes. I don't post, I have the absolute bare minimum required information, and my account usually isn't even my real name.
Even if the US government went full on USSR tomorrow, the data they have on me isn't the type to be useful to them because my traditional social media usage is so damn low. Tiktok wasn't the only example, it's just the one with the most obvious political implication for us right now.
If I had a reason to hide my data (like in your hypothetical) then I could do it at the drop of a hat by switching fully to Linux which I already use. I have emails with three different providers only one of which is Google, and I don't federate anything critical.
You guys are just so concerned about the stupidest information that can't even be used against you unless it's for selling you a product.
do you have a phone?
do you have a car that was manufactured after 2015?
does your ISP know your real name?
do you have a bank account?
I guarantee you there's already more of your data out there than you're comfortable with.
Outside of the car (mines a 90's model) none of that is even remotely avoidable even if you went totally FOSS. Your ISP still needs your info and you'll still use some kind of bank or credit union.
is exactly the point I was trying to make to the guy who was like "I just use Linux and put a fake name on my GrubHub orders"
A lot of it is definitely performative security theatre style sticking your head in the sand.
