It's sad to see that many people here in the discussion are not trying to critically assess the subject matter in proper context and rather targeting the article author about his bias or why he dedicated a whole paragraph to a certain issue. Seriously?
We can all do much better than this.
You also cant use the Google Assistant on your phone without turning on the Voice & Web Activity afaik. Its terrible. I switched to DuckDuckGo and dont care much about giving up some convenient features anymore.
This entire discussion feels alien and even kinda primitive to me, someone grown up in India. We have a simple nozzle that sprays water and cleans your anus way better and without having to wipe it off yourself with toilet paper.
Toilet paper just frankly seems like a hallmark of western consumerism to me.
Well true the help needs to be increased. Programs like National Cybersecurity Awareness Month need to be popularised more.
Also most people are not updated with what's happening and what news threats are popping up everyday.
Yes, we are entering an age where cybersecurity cannot be just a resposibility of the experts. We need all people in the organization to be aware and stay secure on their part. One bad fish spoils the entire pond. Similarly, one loophole is enough for entire systems to go down.
