This is the age of information. It would take a grand total of a few hours for the average person to watch a video to give them all the knowledge they need to avoid the pitfalls you listed.
People are afraid and lazy, it's easy to let fear control your decisions.
I think the age of information has passed. If you try googling/search engine any of this you get scraps of information that don't tie well together.
All I am saying is I could see people throwing up their hands and thinking it's too confusing or dangerous.
Information is everywhere, but so is misinformation now. There's LOTS of AI-generated articles out there telling people nothing helpful, or straight-up incorrect answers from Google searches.
We have a Piracy board on Lemmy with a beginner's guide.
