82% of online users in the US and 75% in the UK are choosing to change the way they behave online, according to a new consumer survey by FigLeaf.
For these respondents, 74% say they are sharing less information online as a result. As for the 25% who indicated that recent privacy scandals had no impact on their online behavior, the prevailing reasons were that they were already highly protective of their information, or that they had accepted a lack of privacy when engaging online.
The survey follows a similar study conducted by FigLeaf in March 2018 that queried more than 7,500 users in five different countries: United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France and Australia.
