Just because I live online doesn't mean I prefer to use a card. When I go out (which I do indeed do sometimes) I prefer to use cash. It's quicker, simpler, and anonymous. And no, anonyminity isn't just for illegal means, otherwise why would we care if the government/our ISPs/the FBI kept track of our web-browsing habits. For me it's about privacy for the sake of privacy. I don't want to give it up now, because I might need it later.
