It's out of date. The planet has enough resources for everyone. Humans do not need to prey on our own species.

Predator/prey is also a metaphor. People aren't actually being eaten. They are voluntarily sharing data that is used to provide them with a service that they want. I'm so depressed that I have to spell everything out.

And in these threads where you call us sheep, we are deciding that the data price is too high for the service rendered.

We have the right to use government to nationalize these programs if they are going to be so deceptive and intrusive.

Facebook falsely advertises their service as free. They don't tell their users that they are collecting unnecessary amounts of data to violate people's privacy, and that this data is payment for the service.
