41. And I still don't care about storing my phone records.

But to say that because I don't care about that means "clearly you don't give a shit about any of this" is an utterly ridiculous assertion.

If I don't care about whether my vegetables are sold in plastic bags as opposed to shrink-wrap, that doesn't mean I don't care about food inspections, food safety, GMO products, misleading labeling information, etc.

Feeling that one aspect of something is not of great consequence does not immediately equate to "not giving a shit" about all aspects of the same topic.

But I don't expect you to understand that. Living in a black-and-white world, where shades of gray are too confusing to be understood, no less considered, is a simple life. That's probably why the simple-minded feel comfortable living there.
