Agree that the way an argument for privacy is framed determines the support from the average person.
I've heard a number of times people saying that they have nothing to hide, yet would not give my unreserved access to their phone when I ask. Then I try to explain to them that Google, Apple, etc. are doing the same thing except they're not asking permission and they just don't seem to care. The convinience of having an Alexa that they can talk to whenever is worth more to them than the possibility that these companies can be listening in on them. Until an event that causes real fear of privacy loss occurs, I don't think many will take it seriously.
