āgiven inaccurate information about yourselfā is the lowest percent on that chart, but I doubt that is where it belongs. Any time a website asks me for personal info, I was born in 1907 etc.
I sure hope so. The Snowden bombshells being dropped bit by bit is keeping it in the collective conciousness, sure, but so many people easily forget the last tragedy for the next. I donāt know, Iād say the idea that people are finally grasping how big and awful this is, and actually keeping it in mind, is optimistic.
I think they must have some sort of narrow definition for that, like creating fake Facebook accounts with most of your information just slightly wrong to throw off big data or something. I came in 5% below āgive a fake nameā which would seem to be a subset otherwise.
Itās not the end of surveillance, itās not even the beginning of the end of surveillance, but itās the beginning of the beginning of the end of surveillance.
Loth as I am (and itās unbelievably loth - on the lothness scale its as loth as a loth lothophile at a lothicians convention on lothology) to give any attention to that 'orribly ridiculous churchill dog,
Oh Yes
(But should it be āend of the beginning of the endā?).
I figured the other 87% of people were lying.
Perhaps more noteworthy is the survey that graph was based on was taken from July 11-14 of this year, when the Snowden leaks were still fairly fresh news and it seems plausible that the significance of the revelations hadnāt sunk in yet.
Running that survey today would be pretty interesting.
How do you know when āpeak indifferenceā happens? Is there any way to measure it? Is there any actual evidence itās in the past and not in the future?

Ah, of course! As for the other part, itās lovely to roll around in oneās mouth and it would sound SO good coming from someone like <a href=Mark Strong - IMDb>Mark Strong, but I havenāt the faintest idea what it means:
Difficult to interpret those results, actually.
Because I think that the set of people who care about their online privacy may well significantly overlap with the set of people who lie to, or refuse to answer nosy people who question them about online privacy.
At most itās the beginning of the end of surveillance that you find out aboutā¦
Who cares?
Itās a puppet of a bulldog called churchill that sells insurance.
Thanks! Glad I asked, otherwise I wouldāve been watching and rewatching
āLock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels,ā hoping that it was some bizzarre
cutdown sprung forth from the naturally demented British mind. And again,
I wonder: If science ābrought backā an ancient human, would it take more or
less than five minutes of modern television commercials to make that person
think it was better to be dead?
Yeah, 100% of Internet users have given inaccurate information about themselves, itās just that only 14% admit it.
Seriously, though, this kind of survey is pretty stupid, inasmuch as filling it out honestly is contradictory to half the questions on the instrument.
