ffony No idea what you're going on about people who can't afford internet being privileged. I said people who think its worse in pretty much any way are privileged.
It's like this... Everything bad said about IT is usually far worse the further back you go. That makes the complainers... Ignorant and privileged. They don't know how bad it was because they weren't born then. Young people are entitled when it comes to technology. I know because I work with them and support godforesaken old systems. Youth are entitled by ignorance. Older folks... Well... Remember that... The greatest security threat isn't computers, it's people. Social engineering and those people who do it are basicly the same as those grifters who would visit the old and dying and pretend to be their great grandchild or a child. Or get them to buy freakin scam magazines.
The biggest one for me is affordability. All that software in your pc or your phone when you buy it makes it cheaper to buy in the first place. That means poorer people have access to technology to learn automation and access a massive library of knowledge. It is, quite literally, a great tool to get a person out of poverty and the software is a minor inconvenience to reduce the cost of purchase by like a third.
