My young family members are the worst, they just click "yes" to everything, regardless of any effort I've made to explain how things work.

Any barrier to convenience is too frustrating to them. They don't like even using full applications in their laptops, always say "wheres the app, this is too complex". ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

You're not wrong. Ffs.

I'd say you made the point better than any of us.

I know some network security folks, in their 40's, who've literally said "I don't want to be inconvenienced" when discussing why they tolerate this invasive shit.

Motherfucker, your job is securing networks. You know first hand the kind of shit going on out there.
