The Illusion of Privacy

        Privacy has truly become a commodity in our world, and there are many different factors as to why we struggle to keep our information private and hidden. While different companies have tried to come up with certain fixes, there hasn't been 1 perfect way.

    It has been increasingly theorized that companies like google or meta have been stealing our data, and even if that is a case, these companies and websites have become essential to our everyday lives, and some can't live without them.

    While people have tried to find workarounds, like VPNs and blockers, websites usually add hidden cookies in order to take information from users, and this, while not specifically illegal, should be.

    This may scare some people off though, as with the already growing fear of AI, privacy is one thing people think are a lock in todays society, but this may never be the case.

    There can be some simple ways to try and avoid these breaches, like strong passwords or using only trusted sites, but even these ideas are not set and stone.

    In todays world, with paranoia at an all time high, we just have to try to be as safe as possible with our information, and remember that there's maybe just MAYBE a chance we're being watched, or our info is being stolen.
