I understand this and every other example you point out, but let's be real: I can't physically check what my friends, family and beloved ones do with my (meta)data without heavily invading their privacy (that's ironic) or schooling them about how evil GAFAM are and so on. Most of my friends aren't also technically inclined, so it would be both a waste of time and a source of useless arguments. I just do my part and I can't do more. Neither can you, frankly.
I was focusing on the notion of 'Not my business. Their data', because when our data becomes their, it is not solely their data anymore...
Plus, their data becomes a bridge to ours.
A bridge that connects our information makes privacy a shared concern.
