I did a poll for a my sociology class this year[0], I think people were confused between the ideas of what is "secure" and what is "private". In hindsight I should have put a quick definition of the two concepts at the top.
It's particularly visible in the question about "to what degree do you agree with": "social networks are secure"/"bank websites are secure".
People thought bank websites --which have notoriously bad password practices, for example mine (Société Générale) has a 6 digits password policy-- were more secure than social networks. Facebook and Twitter routinely enforce 2FA and multiple checks on each login attempt.
Link but it's in French.
