This is a false dichotomy; both things can be true at the same time. Just because some groups increase their time massively on media, particularly children, doesn't mean that the privacy movement is not growing. Take into account the addiction factor, people doing things they know are bad for them because the _need_ that dopamine hit.
Just take a look at the iPhone advertising slogan: "Privacy. That's iPhone" It's not, but people like to pretend to actually care about data collection, and that's why they use it in their promos.
Other than that, laws are currently being passed in several states[0] that are attempting to limit this extreme data collection. These laws are limited compared to their European counterparts and are obviously not enough, but clearly people do care.
