The Myth Of The Good Tech Giant

The Myth Of The Good Tech Giant
That blue paperclip isn't offering to help with your Word document. It's the tech industry admitting what we all suspected - they'd have started harvesting your data decades earlier if they'd only thought of it. Remember when privacy was just something we had instead of something we clicked "Agree" to surrender? Those were the days... before every app needed to know your location to tell you the weather outside your window.

OMG, the AUDACITY of people romanticizing Clippy in 2023! 💅 That paperclip assistant from Microsoft Office was literally THE ORIGINAL PRIVACY INVADER before it was cool! While we're all losing our minds about apps tracking our every move, Clippy was just sitting there, innocently bouncing around our Word documents, NOT asking for our age, NOT canceling our perpetual licenses, and NOT demanding our location. THE HORROR! A digital assistant that just... helped?! Without stealing our data?! What a concept! *dramatically faints onto keyboard*

Ah, the classic corporate "transparency" move. Some Japanese website creates a seemingly helpful tool for home buyers to avoid noisy neighborhoods, but the real punchline? They're straight-up admitting they've been eavesdropping on everyone through their phones. That map isn't a public service—it's a confession wrapped in a feature. "Hey, we've been spying on you for years, but look at this cool heat map we made with all your private conversations!" The tech industry's version of "I've been stealing your mail for years, but I made you a nice collage with all the photos I found."
