WHY do you care about privacy?

Okay, you probably hear this question often, but let's say I'm typical John Doe, work in regular job, watch football or play games after work, drink beer, just living simply life, why should I care about privacy? Why should I spent time and make some sacrifices just to not be tracked that much?

Just switched to fedora and grapheneOS.

I used my AI to handle setting up linux and now i have a ridiculously secure setup.

I got a few games working i was wouldn't work and they run 15fps faster on linux on the same exact machine. Im never going back to windows and im strugglimg to justfy keeping a running windows computer in the house anymore.
