Have you considered that less control for the user is more control for someone else?

The more we do on computers that are opaque to us, and yet interconnected on the Wild West of the Internet with OS's with known vulnerabilities (and potentially backdoors) and privacy-hostile apps, the deeper and more detailed our activity and communications can be tracked. Are those good conditions for a healthy balance of power? Perhaps citizens of developing countries will face less-tolerant political climates than we're fortunate to have.

The long-term consequences of a lack of control over our smartphones, which as per the presentation deck we tend to have with us all the time and use very frequently, and also have tremendous sensor capacity, seem to be worth some thought.
