    But to say privacy is a weird thing is really sad

    That’s not what was said.

    They said “they’re probably one of those privacy weirdos”, which is different.

    I value privacy and am conscious of it, more so than the average user. I choose, willingly and knowingly, to use certain services that damage my privacy in exchange for their services.

    The “privacy weirdos” are the people who see that statement and go “well you shouldn’t ever be using service x because it’s not secure you stupid dipshit! Just use service y, it’s FOSS and has half the features but it respects privacy so it’s better in every way!”

    Dunno how the person got “I’m a privacy nut” from “ads aren’t good for journalism” tho, that doesn’t track
