"Who really cares?"

I do.

"All these companies hold your details in one way or another."

Absolutely correct. It's obviously impossible to engage in any business other than cash-only, in-person purchases without giving information about yourself. All that means, though, is that I'm very cautious about purchases that aren't cash-only and in-person. Netflix doesn't provide anything I can't get in more secure ways, so I'm not going to do business with them.

"The sooner we accept that our data will be mined through any medium imaginable, the sooner we can be at peace with it and enjoy life."

I disagree. Accepting that as my inevitable lot in life means that I can never really be at peace.
