I think we've been spoiled and lulled into trusting too much. While I agree it leads to nihilistic behavior, I think enough people will simply be more careful and companies will have to get better, including the technical part that the top comment mentions. Similarly, I think we've been too willing to believe anything the media or advertisers say. I'm in my 40s now and I look back and feel embarrassed at all the things media and ads told me that I believed.
