    If the general public was just aware of how much privacy they lose by downloading these apps, companies like Meta would never be able to get away with stuff like this.

      I doubt it. Most of the time when I point out to someone just how much data they’re giving up the response is just “so what if a chinese person knows about me”

      Privacy for its own sake has lost value with the younger generations. What we really need to do is educate on the consequences and dangers of the lack of privacy.

        New gen here(19). Care about privacy, while most people i know doesn’t. It does not depends on gen. It’s just most people of any gen, if they get comfortable with service they would not care if it’s gonna take every piece of info they have.
