Given that...

...that’s not quite possible. :)

But I get your point — that the majority will be opting out — and I
personally don’t think that will be happening.

If people actually cared about their privacy, then they wouldn’t be
running Windows, publishing their whole life online on Facebook, or
filling their systems with malware.

People will just accept what’s shoved in their faces.

The average non-technical member of the general public that is really
genuinely concerned about issues like this probably doesn’t even own a
computer in the first place (or an Internet connection).
