What harm does public data have to you? Couldn't one just ignore the ads? You can't see anyone watching you, is public data good for public records? (I'm just curious). I know this sounds weird but is public data good for historical preservation and knowledge increasing the importance of the individual? And does public data lead to better products?

If you start to build an "intention" mind set. This will make you successful in so many areas of life.

    Well, judging by your previous comment.

    I essentially just thinking about what the intention is behind something. What are Facebook's intentions? Are they to connect you with your friends, and improve your life? No. Their intention is keep you stuck too their platform, and sharing marketable details of your life.

    You walk onto a car lot. Is your first thought "hey, this guy is super friendly! He just wants to spend time with me" not, his intention is to get you into the most expensive car he can.

    Does that make sense?
