    If you’re sitting at a poker table and you can’t tell who the sucker is, it’s you.

    Alternately, if you look at an online service and can’t tell what the product is, It’s you.

      And even if you can tell what the product is, it‘s still often you. “Premium” subscriptions for example might hide (some) ads, but services still collect as much data about you. Even grocery stores where the offer seems obvious are trying to bait you into installing their apps to collect data on top of charging you for every item. And sure it’s not relevant in this case, but it’s something we should never forget.
