When it comes to privacy, people allegedly exhibit schizophrenic behavior, according to a survey summarized here at out-law.com.
Almost 90% of UK internet users are prepared to give away private data despite 84% of the same users claiming to be very guarded about online privacy.
But here's the thing. People were first asked if they carefully guard their income information (84% said yes) and were later asked what income bracket they fall into (89% picked a category). I don't consider the latter response the same as giving away your bank account or credit card number. Seems like a case of this.
