it's been a couple weeks since I pointed out Dawn E. Collett's awesome #LCA2021 presentation: "The Privacy Tax: How tracking and hacking affect disabled people, and what we can do about it"
Dawn points out many extra costs for privacy for disabled people
Many of her topics affect all of us (web-trackers anyone?)

We have a recording, checking now to see it worked
In the meantime, check out Dawn's earlier presentation on the topic from #lca2021

AU government will keep health record until your 110th birthday because going to the eleventy first birthday would obviously be going too far
disability needs are about the worst day, but social media tends to be about the best day from Dawn's talk
