My guess is that for every person that goes silent, another that might not have, speaks up. Just polarizing the issue more than anything.

  It has certainly enraged me, but while I might rail more against the surveillance state online anonymously I find myself much more careful in the public space.

    Given the volume of data you're leaking online, you know that you're not anonymous online, right?

      This is a rather tired argument IMO. It's absolutely possible to be anonymous enough online to mask your real identity, especially from bulk, non-targed surveillance.

        My statement had to to with a specific individual who's posted a massive amount of pii online; if you have a specific claim related to bulk data collection, happy to address it.
