    Americans say they’ve lost control over personal data, according to a new study.

    FOX News Radio’s Bill Vitka reports: 

    Americans overwhelmingly believe that the government and private companies are violating our privacy.

    91% of us feel we’ve lost control over how personal information is collected and used by companies, according to a survey by Pew.

    80% of Americans are worried that the government has become Big Brother in the way it spies on phone and email.

    At the same time — we’re not entirely sure what to do about it.

    Privacy might be part of a trade-off. 55% in the Pew survey say we’re willing to share some information in exchange for using a free online service.
