Escape the Kidnappers

Every photo, every swipe and every late-night scroll is collected, sold and used by businesses young people have never met, out on a digital highway that was never built for living.

Escape the Kidnappers names the trap: the data brokers, the dopamine loops, the breach at a company you never chose, and the 2 a.m. call in a voice you would know anywhere.

Then it shows the way off the shoulder. Eleven solutions hiding in plain sight, each explained with things you already know, like house keys, license plates and building permits. You don’t need to understand the technology.
