I do find myself on the “private first” side…but also keep in mind that those who grab for pitchforks in defense of privacy aren’t a representative sample of the typical user either. (A purely statistical statement).
It’s very easy to confuse ‘loud protest from a small minority’ and the majority opinion. If a plurality of users chose to participate in an analytics program when asked and don’t care to protest phone-home activities when they’re discovered, then that’s where the majority opinion likely lies.
