      <title>Choose Independence NOT Dependence</title>

Sadly, we (the collective American &lt;a href=&#34;../images/the-consoomer.png&#34; &gt;Consoomer&lt;/a&gt;) have that backwards. We have grown accustomed to trading away our independence, be that our privacy, personal data, or in many cases our very capacity to think independently. We trade it away for shiny new products that come with the promise of convenience. I say that last part somewhat tongue in cheek because corporations know what sells and employ a standing army of marketers who will sell you on why you need this new product or feature. If they do not get to you first then the dragnet of Youtube Tech Dorks will sell you on the idea with their latest Tech Review upload.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
