The folks in this thread are misinterpreting the comment. It's not that someone from 1970 wouldn't understand the concept; it's that they would rightfully think that it's stupid and judge you for putting up with it.
Can confirm, have boomer parents who wonder wtf is wrong with everyone just freely giving up all their personal data to the people they spent 15 years being drilled not to give their information to.
On the other hand;
“I don’t care because I have nothing to hide.” - My mother, born 1961, when told she should stop using Chrome.
Neither do I. But why give up something I don't have to? If it's valuable to someone else, I should at least get some compensation for it.
