    I said I love them didn’t I?

    But I think you forget most people have limited attention spans and don’t care about this. They don’t need to know. It’s the equivalent of Windows UAC. Folks get a headline each week, Google is selling your info, malware this, Alexa it’s listening! And they have just tuned it all out. It’s counter productive unless you’re interested in the topic.

    The privacy and security security could use a good lesson in messaging. They’ve largely made themselves irrelevant to the general public.

      No arguments.

      I would add that people’s unwillingness to understand or care about security risks does nothing to alter the importance of being aware of them, but I’m well aware that expecting anyone to give a shit about cybersecurity is pissing into the wind.
