People do care, they are just sort of powerless to do anything.
Try the following exercises:
- try not to use google docs at work
- try to block google sites from your phone
- try to pay for things on the internet without accessing google/recaptcha/etc
it is both too big and too small of a problem for most people to deal with.
I know most technical people have done these sorts of things, but it is sort of like being your own sysadmin/security researcher. It's probably easier to run your own mail server in comparison.
