Yeah, it’s really hard to get lay people to understand infosec issues. I had to create a separate VLAN for my wife because she couldn’t tolerate being behind a VPN or pihole because she wants to click on sponsored ads on Google.
And don’t get me started on how she feels about the fact that I password protect all. She knows my password, but still thinks I’m hiding something.
But I work in InfoSec, so of course I’m hiding everything. Just not from her.
Yeah, too many people think anyone who cares about data security needs to get their hard drives checked.
Fundamentally, just completely antithetical to the principles of constitutional democracy, basic freedoms and human rights.
“Everyone else lets me walk over their rights, so if you maintain your own then you must have something to hide, and I will use that as justification to transgress them!” It’s so fucked up…
I know you’re just talking about your wife, but the same thing applies to corporations, adware, data brokers, and governments.

I like to ask the “I have nothing to hide” people if I can go paw through their underwear drawer.
I mean, most everyone wears it, so it’s not like it’s something to hide, right?
People actually click those? That’s horrifying.
Yeah, I agree
