Aren’t they already? I’ve stayed away from them. I mean it’s pretty straightforward isn’t it, eat decent food and exercise and the rest is luck right?
Maybe not but I have zero trust around data use now.

some people are so obsessed with health KPIs so the go all in blindly. personally, i don’t see any value unless you are a pro athlete. however, if we decide to use such tools, we should always be cautious. when choosing health trackers, we should always look for devices that allow us to “opt-out” of data sharing, have a path for account deletion, and have super transparent privacy policies.
I'm sure there's someone on earth who got run over by a car they didn't see because they were looking at their health tracker. The universe loves irony!
