I suppose the following group counts as idiots, but a lot of them are naive rather than actively malicious. You'll see people argue of things like oh who cares about privacy, I post online all the time and nothing happens. Completely oblivious to cases such as people using airtags to stalk people. Or people using location data from dating apps to assault their targets. Or widespread cases of people fearing their medical data could easily be accessed by law enforcement in a post Dobbs vs Jackson United States.
This group is probably the most difficult to reason with because they refuse to empathize with others in these cases. To them, the idea of being targeted is something that happens to other people, and even if they were targeted nothing would happen besides maybe a nude leaking or whatever they consider "sensitive but worthless". It's this combination of lack of empathy mixed with a particular kind of data, not tech, illiteracy.
