Your life is not a product. Your life is not a currency. Your story is not for sale. In today’s world, true power lies in maintaining unbreakable privacy.
The Silent Things Happening Behind Your Back
Just imagine this: You wake up, grab your phone, and start scrolling through your feed. It seems like a harmless habit, right? Wrong!
Behind every like, post, and interaction on social media, there are unseen actions at play. Major companies are making bids on your attention span. The algorithm understands your behaviour better than you do. Once they collect the data they want from you, your profile is sold to the highest bidder.
This isn’t a science fiction movie or book; this is surveillance capitalism, data extraction at work. Today’s social media companies wield significant power in this domain. Since the early 2000s, these platforms have evolved from connection tools into data extraction machines. Your personal identity? It serves as fuel for targeted advertising. Your private conversations are like trying to find a needle in a haystack.
But wait for a moment, when did we agree on this? When did we sign away our digital presence for this?
At Tubool, we believe it’s time for a change. We’ve thrown out the old playbook and crafted a whole new set of rules. Privacy isn’t just an extra feature; it’s the foundation of our luxurious social empire.
A Brief History of Digital Betrayal
Let’s travel to the past and now consider the scandals that have broken the trust. In 2023, Meta faced a staggering €1.2 billion fine for illegally transferring European user data to U.S servers, exposing millions of people’s privacy to the company. TikTok also did this by following with a €345 million penalty for misusing children’s or teens’ data, highlighting how vulnerable groups bear the brunt of lax protections.
These aren’t isolated incidents. Social media platforms have seen many breaches, such as over 533 million Facebook users’ data leaked in 2021, including all the phone numbers and emails sold on the dark web. In 2023, reports emerged of 200 million X (formerly Twitter) email addresses circulating around the hacker forums.
According to the statistics, nearly 25.8% of users have had their personal information compromised in a breach.
Now you are thinking about consequences? Let me tell you, Identity theft, targeted scams and eroded autonomy. With over 4.9 billion global social media users in 2023, the scale of potential harm is staggering. Yet platforms prioritise growth over guardianship, leaving users to pay the price.
Privacy Is the New Luxury
Let’s take a moment to think about something important. If we were to compare the value of diamonds to the value of true privacy, what do you think would be more costly?
Take a moment to consider: if diamonds were to disappear, could we eventually collect them again with effort? On the other hand, once our privacy is compromised, can it ever truly be restored?
How do you feel about the idea that, if information about you gets leaked, people might never forget it? What do you think this means for our lives and our personal data? Share your thoughts!
Trust in major networks has significantly declined, with privacy being the main reason users are leaving. Why is this happening? In an age of constant surveillance, true privacy transforms your online experience from merely transactional to genuinely transformative. It enables authentic connections without the fear of being exploited.
Tubool was built as the Fort Knox of social media. Not because privacy is a “nice to have”. But because without it, there is no freedom. We envision a future where privacy
