Honestly it's the same thing with the (well-educated) people who have their entire lives on the Google cloud and don't have an issue with the privacy practices of Facebook and Tiktok. They know the companies use their data and they don't mind or care - all they want are their free services. To them features/functionality/cost is first, and privacy is an afterthought. I see this view in a lot of people nowadays.
