"One of the most damaging and widespread social beliefs is the idea that most adults are incapable of learning new skills".
Especially computer skills, with the creation of an infantile society falling prey to the Surveillance industry. An infantile society is an innocent society ripe for the ripping off.
The onus is on us to help educate people about value, cost, and trade-offs they make.
Only then we can talk about autonomy and economic independence truthfully.
