    Have their usage rates reflected their lack of trust? Unless it has, I doubt companies care.

      I’ve noticed at least among my peers that the Meta policy change relating to Queer people and Immigrants was the final nail in the coffin.

      Exactly. I see no evidence in the article that this is a trend - that seems to be a naive interpretation by an incompetent reporter. They’ve just confirmed something that has always been true.

      Also:

      While teens may or may not track these tech news headlines as closely as their adult counterparts, this overall shift in sentiment is affecting them, too.

      Uh no, it’s the adults who are out of touch here. The old media news headlines don’t represent reality very well.

    Lost trust, or never had trust to begin with.

    I have personally lost trust as companies used to at least ACT like they gave a rats ass. They have clearly shown they don’t give a flying Frick and do whatever they want, whenever they want and are extremely open about it now.

    Teens and younger I feel have never seen companies that give the impression they care. I’m talking like 2015+ birthed children.
