I'm an average Joe and try to minimize my digital footprint as much as convenience allows, but keep seeing people say that this is paranoia and doesn't matter.
People literally don't care about their privacy. Anything that is raised regarding tracking is classified as being paranoid and you become a weirdo.
possibly never going to happen
