Neither of the two. Only a minority care about these two aspects overall, as seen through history. And generally, there is a lot of overlap.

I define "control" as customization, more than privacy. No one cares (it seems) if the manufacturer collects all the information on your device every second, as long as there's "that checkbox to disable it" and a minimal assurance the checkbox actually works. i.e. no superfish-like scandals.

Few people will care further than that. And this subset of people basically includes all OSS-fanatics. Definitely not "disruption" fans; more like the opposite.
