Defaults matter.
Opt-in vs opt-out organ donorship has a large impact.
Most people on any web app won’t stray from the defaults.
Organ donation saves lives at no cost to you (because at this point you're dead).
It's unclear if my private data being used for training has a cost to me, but I'm giving posthog money already. They shouldn't double dip.
Which we probably need to consider changing now that some truly bizarre and evil shit is being done on donor organs:
Again, this is because it's uninformed.
Consent matters.
yea except one is a "dark pattern" to exploit customers for corporate profit while the other is to benefit society.
I sincerely hope this never comes to pass, but you or your loved ones may someday find themselves in the position of wishing more people were opted in for organ donation.
The same cannot be said for some random corporation training AI models off your data to make a buck or two.
