It hacks my phone. It hacks my email. It hacks my food stamps. It hacks my bank account. It tracks all my purchases. It uses things that I said. It uses things that I wrote. It takes things that people say about me and creates fictionalized versions of them without ever asking me what happened.
I am a totally degraded person and have a totally degraded life. While everything about me is looted every day, I never stop being accused of trying to take things from other people who are victimizing me, and I never stop being treated as if my opinion and what I want and don't want are inconsequential feelings that ought to be manipulated for other people's goals instead of respected.
What policy could I write that would cause all of that to stop? Abusers abuse because they want to abuse; they like it that their targets can't stop them.
