Here's the irony nobody talks about: your best shot at real privacy and encryption might actually come from Big Tech giants.

Think about it—linking a passkey to an on-chain identifier sounds theoretically risky, but realistically? Even if someone manages to connect those dots, you're looking at a single digit. Not exactly a goldmine of personal data.

We've already seen this paradox play out with platforms like Google's Pixel devices. They market privacy as a selling point while sitting on massive user data infrastructure. Yet somehow, their encryption layers remain solid.

The contradiction is uncomfortable but revealing: scale and resources can mean better security implementation, even when the entity controlling the system isn't necessarily your first choice for privacy advocacy.
