When it came to online data sharing, German internet users presented the highest awareness among other European countries of how much personal data they were giving away. As of 2023, approximately 77 percent of German internet users reported they were aware of the amount of personal information they shared on the internet and social networks. Users in France followed, with 72 percent of users reporting they were aware of the amount of data they shared.
