Cognitive dissonance. “I dont care” is much easier to say then “wow, Im a fool that has shared way too much personal information and that has put me at risk”. The latter literally attacks your own identity.

These people do care because 5 minutes later they will be sharing their pet conspiracy theory that Siri is listening to their conversations.

    People's inability to grapple with cognitive dissonance, and how people often go with "I'm a good person making good choices" instead of the more difficult path of changing, is part of why everything is so horrible.
