It’s obvious for some people (perhaps the OP, yourself and myself for example) it’s not obvious or obvious that it’s even an option to the majority of people.

I personally try to advocate for good privacy education at places of work, study and play usually with a combination of a) the naritive / context, b) Provide simple examples (of why it probably matters), c) Explain with metaphors, and d) Give some simple advice where possible.

It’s not a perfect strategy but I think it does noticeably help lift the awareness bar.
