I don't think I understand your reasoning. Your friends and family enjoy free Google search, Google Maps, Facebook, etc and are ambivalent to privacy concerns.

I don't think I understand your reasoning. Your friends and family enjoy free Google search, Google Maps, Facebook, etc and are ambivalent to privacy concerns. You, personally, don't mind paying for services or avoiding them entirely. I assume by fixed, you mean the government should pass a law that reflects your position on the matter, even though by your own account it is the minority position.
- mark_l_watson 6y agoYes, you understood me correctly: I would like my country to implement European Union type privacy laws. I am not in a minority position in my family and friends circle, rather, I am the only one willing to put effort into it. Everyone says that they would like privacy protections, but the tech requirements for protecting themselves is more effort than they are willing to take. If we could poll the population of the EU, I would expect the same: they want privacy but don't want to personally jump through tech hoops to get it.
