I agree of course, but I dont think that merely stating ones dislike on an internet forum will be an effective way to effect change.

So I pose the question: What actions may we take in order to help ensure a future of non-implementation of "the user is the product" systems, with a specific focus on those actions that are most likely to be the most efficacious at accomplishing the stated goal in an expedient and lasting manner?

So how efficient are for instance the EFF on conveying messages like this to a broader public. I bet that the gaming community for instance would have the technological understanding needed to understand how this is bad for them as consumers.
