alt Hacker NewsThe irony of npr.org welcoming me with
"We and our 474 partners store and access personal data, like browsing data or unique identifiers, on your device."

Not ironic, unfortunate reality. I'm annoyed npr and 474 use personal data for profit. It should be illegal. I'm terrified the government uses personal data without checks on the use case. Especially since it is illegal, and they just don't care about that. Or there's a loophole, or whatever, and they just don't care how The People will react to them using it, which is just as terrifying.
