Your Data Is a Commodity

And that leads to the next point. When you sign up for a service, you trust that service with your personal data. Online banking is a perfect example because those accounts have all your information, like identity cards and addresses, along with the data of your finances.

With so much personal information stored in central databases, there’s a huge incentive for hackers to target those storage servers. This proves that your security is at risk each time you sign up for a new platform. Centralized databases are vulnerable to digital crimes, and this structure ultimately puts the security of all of us at risk.

Servers Rule the World

And finally, all of this relies on the omniscient internet server. Servers are among the most powerful entities of this era because we all rely on the service providers of the internet. So no matter how you’re using the web – whether it’s for social media, dating, business, or banking, the whole system relies on just a handful of huge entities who gather our information, and have absolute control over our data sets. This is a dangerous amount of power, no matter whose hands it’s in.
