			'overview'   => __( 'Data brokers collect, infer, append, and sell profiles that can become public-power intelligence through purchase or integration.', 'two-identities-anonymous' ),
			'why'        => __( 'It matters because public agencies can gain access to intimate commercial profiles without ordinary collection safeguards.', 'two-identities-anonymous' ),
			'works'      => __( 'Brokers gather public records, app data, purchases, demographics, location signals, device IDs, interests, and modeled inferences.', 'two-identities-anonymous' ),
			'wrong'      => __( 'Failure modes include invisible collection, sensitive inference, stale data, weak opt-out, inaccurate profiles, and unclear downstream use.', 'two-identities-anonymous' ),

			'why'        => __( 'It matters because language is contextual. A word can be joke, quote, research, protest, art, threat, grief, slang, or translation noise.', 'two-identities-anonymous' ),
