    I doubt it. Most of the time when I point out to someone just how much data they’re giving up the response is just “so what if a chinese person knows about me”

    Privacy for its own sake has lost value with the younger generations. What we really need to do is educate on the consequences and dangers of the lack of privacy.

      New gen here(19). Care about privacy, while most people i know doesn’t. It does not depends on gen. It’s just most people of any gen, if they get comfortable with service they would not care if it’s gonna take every piece of info they have.

        One thing I’m not clear on is how so many people don’t care about privacy while mobile operating systems have made permissions labels and privacy controls an important part of the design.

        Perhaps it’s for the minority of users who are more discerning? Maybe it gives the OS developers something to do?
