Sometimes users are dumb, sometimes users are manipulated. Data privacy is a discussion that's been slowly growing and now has been picked up by the general public in some places. There are some public policies that need incentives to go against the market, because market forces are not inherently good. Sometimes there is a need to legally mandate something, or are you also against environmental protection laws? By this logic, f people really care about the environment, would it solve itself then?
