I'm not sure if you're talking about the security products industry but I think of the "conncted" industry is this way. It makes me fairly uncomfortable knowing that every move I'm making, either online or offline, is being uploaded to some server. I stopped installing apps, I stopped signing up to things, I set up automations to turn wifi and bluetooth off as I leave the house.

Well, there's crypto.

Is a pyramid scheme really an industry though?

Did someome say Housing?

You can't live in a bitcoin. Unlike housing, or land, which clearly have some value, the inherent value of crypto is $0. All prices are purely speculative.

It's the new normal, it seems. Same thing holds with the software industry.

Uh - used cars?

>This is not normal - there is no other industry where the customer routinely expects to be defrauded, and everyone to get away with it.

Every try to buy event tickets?

Every industry where I'm given a device with potential network connectivity, I expect the manufacturer to use it for their own purposes.
