> People wonder why [Millennials] aren't more up-in-arms about data breaches and identity theft, and why they prefer [pseudo-anonymous] currencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum over the real banking system with its KYC requirements.

As a millennial, I've always wondered about this. I'll hear coverage on NPR fairly regularly about the latest data breach, and I always feel like NPR is either a) pushing the outrage on me or b) assuming that I must be outraged, because I'm never outraged. I see pretty much everything I put online as public, even if there is a veil of privacy (like FB for example).

The ones that outrage me aren't the passwords being leaked, it's the SSN that I never put online in the first place but was shared by companies I trusted with companies I don't trust but had no choice or notification of.
