Und das bisschen Atommüll ist doch sowieso viel besser als die MASSEN an PV-Anlagen, die recycled werden müssen! /s

Truth be told, most aren't that smart.
A less cynical take would be that in a world that is more and more fractured, where flimsy digital interactions have replaced a sense of local community and where the discrepancy between the cost of living and wages have made people more competitive and less charitable, it is only natural to be distrustful and to be looking for a culprit for your own misfortune. Right-wing politics have the easy job of just amping up your fear, while left-wing politics need to plead for compassion.
Sure, if you live in a shithole country like the US or a wanna-be-shithile country like the UK, companies can just trample you privacy. But in the EU, privacy is protected and you can easily introduce legislation that any non-government surveillance needs to be set up in a way that makes automatic permanent surveillance impossible.
Smells like a marketing stunt.
