The same applies to clothing/clothing donations as well. Often times, thrift stores receive more than they can sell. So, they sell the excess clothing to 3rd parties who make rags from clothing and/or ship clothing overseas to be sold. And just like "recycled" materials, the clothing ends up in dump sites. The donation bins you see in parking lots are often owned by agencies who strictly sell the clothing overseas.

And read the book the documentary is based on.
Shake Hands With The Devil was written by General Romeo Dallaire, who was the head of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Rwanda. The documentary is based on the book and him.
Another good book to read is We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families by Philip Gourevitch.

I have rarely had a conversation with anyone who cares. Almost everyone I've had conversations with about privacy responds with "Well, I have nothing to hide" or "The information is out there anyways". People just do not care.

This probably explains why the PornHub Android app no longer works. Yes, PorhHub had an official Android app you could sideload. You could watch it in VR or cast to Chromecast. The last update borked the app and told you to go to the website.
