While statistics are interesting to understand a trend, for things like privacy/intimacy issues, I always think that they put dangerously people into wide or tiny boxes. Having flexibility in the choices accept/refuse, etc. even if only a minority benefits is important. 

But yes it could be interesting to see distributions across cultures/countries/age/social background.
