Every developer who as been in the industry longer than a year is almost certainly part of two or more major data breeches. I can only speak for myself but I take privacy and security very seriously not only for myself but in architecting system to protect client data as much as possible (and to collect as little as is absolutely necessary).

That is heartening to hear - your strong attitude to privacy I mean @mikece. Agree with you that if you've worked in software for long enough a breach of some kind is an inevitability and that's really important for every dev to understand.

I still meet so many who are laboring under the impression that it won't happen to them - it's just not the case so we all have to have a privacy and security first mindset.
