You think so because you belong to the US groupthink. You cannot "buy" privacy and security, that's an illusion. Buy many workers' time making big fences and reviewing code, you're not "buying security". Anyway, privacy and security are rights for everybody, not only for the rich. Every developer should care and defend them. Otherwise you'll have to buy security and privacy for all the projects (and people) you care about. And that could become impossible, depending on how large your heart and scope are. If you become rich to just screw all the people that trusted you with a crappy product with no security, then to me you are just a fraudster.
