I feel like you’re making a tangential observation, rather than a direct response to the concept of “convenience” being useful in modern life.

Anyways, could you provide some concrete examples of products where you were able to obtain such privacy and security guarantees with minimal friction?

My blender, cutlery, toilet, dishes, and toilet paper. I did have to disable the smart wipe option on the TP, but it was pretty simple.

I usually research any product where it comes from, who owns it, what is the angle of the company. In a way that is convenience to me nowadays. Recently I bought a 3d app, and I first checked what the company did, how did it treat its customers. What does its actions look like? This is kind of my standard procedure these days.
