Yeah, led like sheep by the illusion of convenience. It is sad.

I've been reading all over the place how people are finally becoming more aware of the lack of privacy, but I scratched that as me always seeing this because I mostly interact in privacy and security related environments.

However, the least likely person I know to be concerned about these factors is my brother, as he's all about convenience and 'glamour'. Well, he called me on Sunday to ask me if I suggested that he flashed "that operating system you use on your phone" (GrapheneOS) on his device, and asked if I knew what proton was 🤣 only to mention that he had found that and was in the process of dropping gmail. Imagine my surprise when this guy is calling for this.

What I'm trying to say is that, if my brother is suddenly concerned about his digital privacy and security, I am certain 50% of Normie's out there are as well, or will be pretty soon.

I genuinely believe that we're living in a pivotal moment in digital philosophy across all realms, people are finally waking up from the convenience slumber, and my hope is that this will help shift the discourse all over the place, and we can all expect more of the people in our environments start asking questions about how to fly under the radar.
