The Perfect Chrysler Metaphor, Intentional or Not

It was a dark and unexciting night. The setting: my apartment. The time: well, last night.

The hour was was growing late, but going to bed at a normal time on a Friday night — even my definition of a normal time — seemed like an invitation to early onset senility.

  • CoastieLenn I am so conflicted and confused on this whole "data industry" complaint. On one hand, I completely understand that what someone does, says, and basically thinks is entirely their own business (unless it impacts or could impact others then that freedom should get murky), but on the other hand I feel like b**ching and moaning about it now while you know you have had a cell phone in your pocket for nearly two decades that have been proven to be collecting that same type of data *even when turned off* dozens of times per hour and then transmitting it as soon as it's turned back on is a giant waste of time and the complaints just seem like attention grabs. I'll also admit that I'm completely carefree to let any LEO search my vehicle or person at any time, for any reason because I know I'll never have a reason to worry about it. In that same vein, there's a high percentage of people that have the opposite viewpoint for the opposite reason and to them I say "there's a simple solution to that problem that you're clearly incapable or unwilling to correct, so you're your own worst enemy".
