Fitbit is owned by Google, a corporation that obsessively sucks up information about everything from everywhere, including now all this health information from you about you, that it compulsively stores forever and digs into for whatever money making proposition is can possibly conceive of - which in this case is selling you back your own health information via a premium subscription - and your concerned about a collaboration with Deepak Chopra?

Yes, I'm more concerned of the the normalization of pseudoscience and beliefs in imaginary things then Google knowing my position and my heartbeat. I find it more troublesome that someone like DC makes money on people by selling imaginary solutions to them.

100% in agreement. Chopra is an appalling quack who promotes pseudo-science at every opportunity.

1000% agree - Chopras involvement in the premium package is not an ideal selling point. There are much better alternatives that do not pander to DC’s charlatan pseudoscience.
