Just as fish populations in the oceans have fallen 80%, from previously having fallen 80%, from previously having fallen 80% (ad infinitum), expectations of privacy have similarly fallen precipitously. Each successive generation of the public is accustomed to the privacy status quo of their youth. <a href="https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2024/06/online-privacy-and-overfishing.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2024/06/online-privacy-and-overfishing.html</a>
