    I agree with you. I’m a privacy advocate but there are some things I have given up on. I have an iPhone and just live with the fact that it has much more telemetry than I want. It’s better for work because everyone else has an iPhone, etc. However, on my personal computers I run Ubuntu LTS with all telemetry turned off. I use Firefox with ublock and privacy badger, if I want extra privacy I’ll use a VPN. But even then you have to trust the company that runs the VPN isn’t secretly recording your browsing data, it’s a gamble.

    My main point is, fight for privacy where it makes sense. Don’t waste your limited time fighting it where it doesn’t. That’s become my personal philosophy, your mileage may vary.
