Comment on RFK Jr. Wants Every American to Be Sporting a Wearable Within Four Years

He never said that he wants your data. Like, at all.You are just projecting. The Apple Watch BS claim is from the publication linked, not from him.

In fact, going by he actually said, you are doing exactly what he wants you to do. Use the data, if you want, to make better life and nutritional choices.

Keep doing it. You American seems to need it given your country’s general health stats.

Yes, I am projecting, I will fully admit that. Which is why, as a watch person, I went with a smart watch solution that doesn’t mine my data.

  Appreciate the honesty, friend. You are awesome.
  
  I never got into the wearables but I for sure use my phone. My phone is degoogled so I use health apps from F-Droid which help with tracking some metrics which also sync with my Nextcloud instance only, or do not request to have internet or network permissions.
  
  I do think, like you that having some into IS useful and in that no government Left or rRght leaning should have your ior my nfo. That’s just 1984 -type nightmare fuel.

    Yeah, data mining is a huge deal for a reason haha. I use Gadgetbridge for my Pinetime, which is nice. Steps, battery, heart rate - and it’s all locally stored.
