> people who compare a website wanting to know the number of their visitors to "hidden fees" are kind of being ridiculous

Is counting visitors all that sites are doing with tracking info?

They're not selling it to ad brokers, insurance companies, governments? They're not matching your name, address, and phone number with your web activity (including sexual interests, "anonymous" embarrassing stories, health concerns, etc)?
