I'm in the US and also don't care about Facebook and Instagram, but if I could pay a privacy fee to Alphabet and not be logged and data-mined, I'd do that.
I don't know if there's enough people who would for that to be a viable market, but I'd be there.
It's not about privacy if you're paying. Privacy can't be negotiated. This is a hard fact. It's privacy or nothing.
