Isn’t this like arguing we shouldn’t have food standards because people should be free to decide what they put in their bodies?

Sure, in principle that’s true.

But in practice, is it really fair to expect everyone to understand the health risks of every possible ingredient?

Likewise here, is it fair to expect the average consumer to understand what it means to host a residential proxy? Or even what a residential proxy is?

The industry has proved again and again and again over the past two decades that surveillance, manipulation, and profiteering is all they care about, and the public is wising up to this fact. "We're screwing you clueless people for your own sake" is no longer effective as a thought terminating cliche and can only create stronger animosity towards the industry.

Did I say that? Regulate the companies that produce the products not the products themselves.
