A lot of regular folks! For techies (i.e. most people here), the economics and the possibilities have been known for years. That doesn’t mean my mom knew that too. Normal people were introduced to the Internet as a magical place to connect with friends & family and look up anything. The jump from that to “Facebook now has all your texts and serves you propaganda” is huge and is not unimportant. The “well DUH” attitude that I have heard a lot this last week doesn’t really help much, I think.
