If people don't care, then why is legislation being passed? There is little monetary benefit to a government to unilaterally enact this kind of legislation without public support or legitimate concern for public safety.
Privacy and data mining by corporations is a huge topic of discussion these days. Because the conversation doesn't enter your bubble, it doesn't mean it's not happening. You should look around more, find some diverse news outlets and actually get a sense of public opinion before making claims about it.

Because there is a vocal minority who does care and the media makes the collection of data sound scarier than it really is. >There is little monetary benefit to a government to unilaterally enact this kind of legislation Except for all of the fines that you can collect under it? >get a sense of public opinion before making claims about it. I have and most people do not care until you start using loaded words that make people think people are actually spying on them and people who can look at their data when in actuality their data is drop in a pond and it is only processed by computers and is never looked at by another human.
