    Yeah I suppose that’s pretty fair.

    My only defense I suppose is that regardless of their data being harvested. They vote against their own interests.

    They have been warned for decades that their data was being harvested. They did not listen because they do not care. They do not vote for things that would improve my life. So even if the statement is correct.

    It does not change the outcome. People will vote for what they want. We are not altruistic.

    We should be. As things that improve others will inherently impact us. As voting for selfish reasons will folly us all the same.
