I feel like Cambridge Analytics stuff was about picking out who might be vulnerable to those types of political campaigns and by nature there's probably a bit of a correlation between that type of vulnerability and a lack of understanding of why their privacy is important.
The people who recognise it's important are unlikely to be the ones picked out by these groups anyway
Hard disagree. Nobody is above this stuff. Thinking you aren't vulnerable is a good way to become more vulnerable.
Sorry I think you misinterpret what I was saying.
Im saying that those who don't care about it are also likely the ones that need to care about it the most.
