  Why on earth is it opt-OUT? They could just keep on springing up “new” brokers which you’ll be playing whack-a-mole until the end of time. I don’t think that it should be opt-in either. How crazy of an idea would it be if we were to entirely forbid the sale of private information that people only “consented” to because they clicked the checkbox for a ToS that nobody ever reads, especially at this scale? How does this industry of spying actually benefit our world?
