It’s the volume of person data it scoops up. I don’t understand why anyone would happily share that much information just to use a social media app.

Most people just don’t care.
Unless you're willing to put in a decent amount of work, your giving someone your data. So people have gotten very 'whatever who cares' about it. Full time working people with kids aren't taking time to research. And people want to interact. If everyone is doing it, they're not going to miss out.
We have long answered the question "if your friends jumped off a bridge would you do it too?" There is a large percent who absolutely would.
The average person doesn't know. I bet your parents don't check the privacy policy when they download an app.
The average person might not care. We live in an era where lots of people would literally put listening devices in their houses.
If you're already on Twitter, a decent amount of your data was already being shared anyways.
Most people go to different social media platforms because (paradoxically) people are on those platforms.
A decent amount of people might just dislike Musk because he calls people pedophiles for... helping kids or cucks for... making competing software??? So they'd rather give money to the next billionaire available.
For point one my parents don’t even bother to read error messages. They just close them then phone me and complain the computer is broken.
I also don’t use Twitter and haven’t for many years now. Even longer for Facebook.
While we on here makes it look like there are a ton of people who value their privacy on the internet, the general population by large isn't really aware how bad it is or have the know how to do something about it. The rest who do know don't really care that much.

This link has a decent comparison of a lot of social media sites' privacy policies.
