I wish that were true. But how long have companies like Google and Meta been tracking people? Ask anyone on the street if they think Google and Meta know everything about them and they'll say "yes but I don't care" or "yes but it's unavoidable". There's just no way people don't know by now what incredibly invasive corporations they are. They just don't care.
I do think they know these companies are invasive, but they don't fully understand the ramifications of it, nor do they care to.
