People literally don't care about their privacy. Anything that is raised regarding tracking is classified as being paranoid and you become a weirdo.

In fairness, privacy issues have been a bit like a "frog in boiling water". Unless you pay a lot of attention to these things or are completely out of the loop, the average person won't see the issue.

At least my grandmother's vindicated now for not wanting to get on Facebook and share those sorts of things
