Yup. I do, too. I understand better than most people the trade off and what price I'm paying, but he reality is, I accepted it a while ago. I keep my daughter off of all social media (she's not quite 2) because I know one day she'll be more dependent on it than I am (writing this on an iPhone) and I want her to be able to create her own digital identity and not be stuck with hundreds of baby photos defining her before she gets a chance to.
But that knowledge comes from how my wife and I use our pocket computers (because "phone" at this point is ridiculous, "mobile" is at least a bit more generic). I'm say, half way through my life. I can worry to death and stand against and whatever, or I can get on with life, and appreciate the convenience provided in the short amount of time I have left. It's just admitting it to myself. Once that's done (and it is) I can get beyond grandstanding and just cheer for encryption and join the EFF (I am a member) and so on, hoping to have some impact on pushing the privacy needle to one side vs the other, because we're going to use these things daily, likely no matter what.
