I don't think I have knowingly met anyone who took significant steps to limit exposure to big tech firms who hasn't also taken significant steps in other areas of their life. And people I have met who do take this stuff seriously do things like cash-only, PO box only, no (nearly) online accounts etc. They are certainly making their lives less convenient on this principal.

Where are you meeting people who fit the description you give?

For another anecdotal example, I have only met the exact opposite: people who take steps to avoid big tech tracking but happily use credit cards etc
