I get it. But I am experiencing absolutely zero drawbacks to any privacy concerns, so any potential sacrifice is almost completely unnecessary. I'll support some similar things because I consider them good causes, but I have no problem being an open book. To bring everything back full circle, I assume most of the population feels similarly, and that explains why most people don't care (which was what I was originally replying to).
So you see no problem in living in a world where everything is recorded. That's crazy.
If the only people with access to it don't even know who I am, it's pretty inconsequential, especially since I'm often not doing things online or with a phone or computer. Everything isn't being recorded.
For a lot of people we don’t know anything different. So to a lot it’s making a ton of extremely inconvenient sacrifices to try to claw back something we’ve never had in the first place.
