This argument that "I'm really worried about my privacy, but am probably going to chose to not take some easy steps to protect myself, so the laws should conform themselves for me" is the height of (as Dion pointed out earlier) a complete lack of personal accountability.
Coincidentally, I've got a list for people who only care about things that directly affect themselves.

My phone is locked, so I'm not worried about my privacy. That doesn't mean that I have no concern for the rights others.
