I think the average person just simply doesn't care about their privacy.

In some of the music communities I'm in the content creators are already telling their userbase to go follow them on threads. They're all talking about some kind of beef between Elon and Mark and the possibility of a boxing match... Mark was right to call the people he's leaching off of fucking idiots.
You're viewing a single thread.
Not just that, but I think the average person also thinks with social media being around 15-20 years already, that their data is probably already out there on the Internet anyways.
So because of that, they just don't care.
are they wrong though? let's say in this hypothetical situation, i have never ever had a social media account. Checkmate privacy invaders!
except wait, i have family, like my mother, who have my name and phone number saved in their phone, probably my birthday and address too if they fill out the contact card completely, which they've given permission to facebook to access to "find other friends", and boom, now i have an entry in a data tracking database without ever opting in myself (i know this is a core privacy argument, not arguing that).
so how is the average person wrong in the "they already have it anyway" camp?
