Eh I figure everything you put online is on a marketplace somewhere. If it’s not the website that sold it, it’s the hackers that stole the data. Even when they claim they don’t store the data there always seems to be a plain text storing backup server that they forgot about. Then there’s data scrapers and 3rd party embedded trackers (looking at you share to Facebook button). And good luck convincing a court that thinks a PC is just a chrome portal that your owed damages for a company leaking your data.
Much easier to control the data at the source and keep websites from getting data in the first place. Trust is long dead online.
