@kunev i think that's a great comparison. it is indeed becoming very necessary to understand at least the fundamentals of how the internet (perhaps even computing more generally) works. the literacy off loading you speak of, that happens even inside the tech world, is a huge problem. teaching people to care about networks, data ownership, and the consequences of our increasingly digital world is going to be a very hard problem to solve though

(cybre aspect) @kunev you are correct, it isn't *entirely* a tech problem, and tech alone cannot solve the problem. however, better "implementations" of the internet can lessen the amount of technical details that laymen are required to understand. that being said, i think the future will be technical and we should have systems set up to teach people these technicalities

(cybre aspect) it still blows my mind that there are people all around the world sitting at some sort of device and writing their thoughts into the ether and by sheer "magic" i can see them. there are so many people out there, all of them doing such different things, and with lives just as rich as my own. and somehow you're all excellent.
maybe some of you will read this and be like oh yeah that 0x3f is a person too somewhere, and right this is what they said
