I definitely agree that it is only polite to ask for explicit permission before collecting or using data pertaining to another individual. This practice promotes accountability, and would empower individuals to control their information in a world where data privacy is increasingly important.
Sadly to say it is difficult to navigate the challenging landscape of privacy in today's digital world. It's a constant battle to safeguard our personal information, and your experiences must be quite unsettling 😥
You're right, so I do the only thing I can do, state my displeasure and exert my own freedom to do as I please on the interwebs. I'll do it the same next time, may more brutally though, depending on my mood. I have my reasons which no one here knows.
It's absolutely justified to advocate for your beliefs and protect your image rights. It's disheartening, however, to learn that despite the "warning," the individual proceeded to engage in similar behavior elsewhere. They seem to miss the point of respecting your personal privacy and intruding once again 😣
I'm not sure if it was simply because he doesn't actually have a clue, or if there's a few kangaroos loose in the top paddock (crazy). Either way, I dealt with it in the only way I could, my way.
As I mentioned earlier, in today's challenging environment where data can be tracked or stolen so effortlessly, our options are really limited. We can only strive to safeguard our data to the best of our abilities, even if it means confronting potential "identity thieves" 😒
If someone what's my identity they'rw welcome to it, and the complexities and problems that go with it...can't have one without the other. 🙄
Haha that's very true, please take mine away as well in that case! 😁
