Individuals who genuinely care about privacy are absolutely mythical in the tech industry. If they were commonplace Google would find themselves under continuous seige by a combination of protestors and bizarrely well-funded FOSS projects aimed at every business niche they inhabit. Doubly true for Meta. Bitching online about proposed legislation while private industry maintains exquisitely detailed records of every aspect of your existence is at best performative.
You don't get to come here and tell other people what is and isn't important to them.
You're right, nor am I attempting to. I'm merely pointing out the kazoo-music-and-a-propeller-beanie slapstick levels of comedy that manifest when the tech industry writ large attempts to argue for online privacy with a straight face.
