What do you make of how technology’s affecting our privacy these days? With smartphones, social media, and constant tracking, it feels like we’re giving up more personal info than ever. Some say it’s just the price of convenience, but others think it’s getting out of hand. Where do you stand on this?

Good one.
Isn't it wild how we can talk to others about a certain subject and then ads start popping up on Facebook about what you talked about?

Yep! My husband will randomly call out products when I'm on Facebook to see if they show up in the ads LOL
 
I think it's starting to get more out of hand lately. With Youtube forcing users to upload IDs to verify their age, and same with other social media platforms. I know this is mainly affecting UK residents, but I hate to say it the US might follow through and do this too. These images can easily get in the wrong hands and people can get doxed.
 
With data being the most valuable of world commodities technology has ruled over your privacy for some while.
