That's the problem, many other voices were disregarded. Being tracked on the internet is not too different from being peeped on in the shower. Some like it, some don't care, and some definitely wouldn't want to consider the possibility. In that spectrum of views someone will feel "absolutely no loss of freedom or dignity".
Your argument can easily be applied to pervasive surveillance, backdoors, tracking malware, etc. (along with the traditional "only criminals should fear it"). I even heard it from people using this "I wouldn't mind if it happened to me" as a defense for sexual harassment. I'm glad it works for you, what about the people for whom it's not working?
At the very least this should have been a real choice. If people aren't bothered then explain the choice and let them make it. Anything else is abuse.
