The extension adds a layer of consent and data breach protection to your internet experiences, empowering you to decide when your data is collected, when you see ads, and to profit when you do provide businesses your data. If you do consent to data collection, you will earn points while browsing, every day! The extension is available on desktop for Chrome, Edge, Brave, and any other Chrome-based browser on desktop (sorry, no mobile yet).

Last week marked a historically bad week for Facebook.

First, one of the company’s former product managers, Frances Haugen, came forward with allegations that the company lets dangerous content run amok and chases young users even though Facebook knows its products are detrimental to kids’ health.

Then, Facebook and its platforms, including Instagram and WhatsApp, went dark for more than five hours, underscoring just how dangerous it is to both individual people and businesses to depend on one corporate giant for internet access.

Some critics will call for the resignations of Facebook’s executives, and others will propose piecemeal regulation or breaking up the company. 

But the problem with Facebook is not an individual executive or two. The problem is that Facebook is emblematic of a common corporate view of the internet: one that presumes personal data isn’t yours, the consumer’s, but rather belongs to whichever business has the power to collect it (with or without your knowledge). 

In other words, the problem with Facebook isn’t even Facebook. It’s an economy built on data exploitation. Only replacing that economy with one powered by fair trade data and consent will shift the incentives that lead companies to indoctrinate kids at their peril and monetize violent content.
