It’s alll essentially pointless anyways because the only time it matters at all is if either a company that has your data is hacked, or the government is targeting you because you’re seen as a threat to the ruling class (although this can be a pretty wide net). So it only really makes a difference (as far as I know) if you’re a union leader or activist or something, BUT having more people use the privacy-based service you’re using also hides your own traffic so its harder to single you out, which is what stuff like Tor relies on. So it’s good to encourage everyone to use certain software in order to help the people who actually need it (and make it viable and cost effective to develop). But yeah trying to “hide from the govt” or something is also more difficult than just using some service.

Of course, and especially in cases like Tor, this is actually encouraged by the US govt because they can use it to hide their own traffic when carrying out coup plotting around the world.
