We really have _plenty_ of identity theft, personalised scams (hi Tess' mom!), accounts hacked, large scale photo leaks, etc. People just a) don't hear about it enough, or b) quickly move on to the next crisis with their hands up bexause what can you do. Privacy-preserving options are also often not as easy/convenient/friendly to use. People, perhaps, don't care. But that's a cynical assumption. They supposedly don't care about the environment and yet we're moving the needle on that.

> They supposedly don't care about the environment and yet we're moving the needle on that. Actually, good call, and nice analogy, thank you. That's a nice reminder that when cause and effect are far apart, it's easy for people to not conenct the dots; it actually makes for a nice explanation, and helps me be less cynical about it.
