I find that many comments on this subject here don’t seem to consider that a majority (perhaps a large majority) of citizens in their nation support these policies

Because they don't understand the technology or the consequences.

When they do, they will change their mind (and probably protest loudly that they never wanted it in the first place).

See Brexit for a clear example.
