This is like saying that somebody doesn't care about privacy if they don't PGP encrypt all their emails and messages. Convenience is always a factor.


I don't think it is. If we talk using the browser of one of the worlds foremost data collecting companies vs. mostly no tracking, if privacy is important it should outrank most small to medium convenience factors. Especially the ones that can easily be overcome by customization or familiarity.

While I think everyone should value their privacy, I did not mean that as an attack on you, but if a menu you never need to access once you learn some shortcuts is just as important a factor as being tracked on everything you do, you should reevaluate how important privacy really is to you.
