People don't care because privacy is invisible. I'm turning to the opinion that if we really want to fix this, we need to have government mandates that "takeout" style exports are provided by every company/service, in a standard machine-readable format. If you collect and store any personal data about a user, there needs to be a standard way for them to request a usable copy. Then allow third parties to build tools that work with those to educate users, which is why standard and usable format are key criteria. E.g. "visualize what X knows about you" It's the details that would motivate people, but the details are precisely what's invisible right now. (Disclaimer: talking from a US-centric viewpoint, for the majority of states that don't have digital privacy rights) |
