    Whenever I bring up the issue all I get is blank stares of “how can you not be excited if you work with computers?”. I just wanna scream.

      I feel you :/

      I’d answer with:
      Because it’s a privacy nightmare.

      They’ll answer with:
      I don’t care about privacy,
      I’ve got nothing to hide.

      I’ll answer with:
      That’s a dumb reply,
      my privacy is not important,
      but systematic privacy is,
      if we don’t care about it,
      we’ll end up in a oppressed surveillance state like China.

      And then they say “huh” and likely will continue to not care… ;-;

      However it does make some aware,
      in which I’m putting my faith.
