Yeah, you are right, normally people are too occupied with, well, "just keep going" to fight for a cause, but this can change. I remember back in the time after the Snowden leaks there was a very strong push - even by normal people - for defense against surveillance. I remember how many coworkers and friends started to ask what they could do for more privacy...
But with other news and other problems this all fizzled out after months to years. I guess we will have to push the matter ever more in the focus to keep up with the ever shrinking attention span of the general population.
Yeah, its like good old Sisyphus... but I think its the only tool we have.
