Sure you can have both, it is quite feasible. It starts with paying for services with something other than your privacy. But, as you say, people value their privacy differently. What I find concerning is that the majority choice to not value their privacy makes it more difficult and expensive for those that do value it. In effect: your decision not to care imposes a cost on me. So is it any wonder that people like myself keep trying to persuade others to share their concern?
