For example, when I advocate about privacy and data gathering from big tech companies, one of the most common I heard is "I don' care, I have nothing to hide". What else have you heard?

The excuse I always hear is that they simply don't care. It doesn't negatively effect them so why should they care?

I hear this one too and honestly, it does negatively effect them, they just don't see it because it feels like it's always been there. But give them ad-block for a week and then take it away...
