A significant number of HN users will eschew privacy and even basic human rights (as you so rightly point out) for convenience and the next shiny object.
Take Google for example. We know they are selling out their users, and yet every time they introduce a service, the story gets voted up and readers ooh and ahh. These services harvest the user's personal communications and information for the NSA.
Google hasn't stopped selling out its users. They are doing it now, but there are people reading this comment who will ignore it until it becomes too late.

You don't get it, do you. The guy shouldn't do one second in jail. The threat of 13 years will almost assuredly lock the guy up for a lesser time and make it seem fair. It's not fair.
I like it. Looks great on my BlackBerry Z10. I haven't made a decision yet on a reader but this has a great responsive design and I may stay with this.
So awesome. But please make an app for us BlackBerry Z10 users. Blackberry's encryption and privacy features is a nice fit with Duck Duck Go's anonymous search.
BlackBerry is in a good position with the Z10. It has encryption and privacy features no other phone has, and innovations like the hub. I switched my iPhone 5 for the Z10 and it's way more graceful.
Yeah, RIM were coasting for many years and they paid dearly. But I'm glad to see them back.

The truth sucks, doesn't it.
