I'm not sure how you can bear the cognitive dissonance of both saying that no one "in the general public wants to be bothered with anything more complicated than clicking a large, brightly coloured button," and immediately following that with an argument that people who don't "even bother to change the privacy settings in place" don't "care about privacy."

If there's anything in facebook's 50 settings with 170 options that resembles a large, brightly coloured button, I must have missed it while I was looking at the graphic "Facebook's Ludicrously Complicated Privacy Settings" on Gizmodo.

..What the hell are you talking about? They don't change the settings because it's not a brightly colored button....It's not "ludicrously complicated" and if you'd actually LOOKED of Facebook instead of wasting your time on hackjobs like Gizmodo, you'd see that the privacy settings are quite straightforward. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
