This is accurate. I have a degoogled phone, no mainstream social media, and Linux OS. I have talked to my wife about the reason for my choices, so she is not ignorant about privacy or data gathering issues. She still uses Instagram and Facebook etc. And while she is a bit alarmed at bill C-2 being tabled in Canada (which would share Canadian private citizen info with the USA) I doubt she will think about it next week.
One of my kids was doing that with password123 etc. I have explained how you may not care that your gym account gets hacked, its the fact that they will try those credentials with your bank account, etc.

I can’t even get her to use a password manager properly. She used the same password everywhere and it scares me.
