I don't think the tide has turned yet. It's slowly turning, but it will take a couple of years and some more major incidents.

When people are willing to pay more for privacy focused products, then we'll know that the tide has turned.

Or when politicians realize that people care and start including stricter laws as part of their electoral campaigns. Privacy shouldn't have to come at a cost.

Or when this data is used against a politician in a campaign, so they start caring.

I don't think a few incidents would turn the tide over. Literally all of every American's personal information is out there. It's really just a question of targeting.

Decentralization seems like the only good outcome for privacy but it seems unlikely. Privacy has a monetary value and the simple fact is that most people are willing to trade it for very little.

The move for decentralization seems dwindling but I have hope. If companies become the target of sophisticated cyber attacks, there will emerge an economic opportunity for decentralization.
