While I like those options, they are definitely not for everyone. Those problems are collective, protecting the privacy of 1% of the population is as good as protecting nobody.
That's definitely true. We definitely need more people to care about their privacy as well.
I think a growing number of "normal" people do, they are just less willing to make sacrifices for it than the types of people who populate this community, for example.
