I think it’s less that most people don’t care, or wouldn’t if you explained it, and more that nobody has the power to really do anything about it. Even if you can cut Meta out of your life they still track you and make ghost profiles of you in their data. I’ve never input any identifying information into meta, and my name is so generic it’s practically adjacent to “John smith”, but it still knows who my family and former coworkers are.
