In some of the music communities I’m in the content creators are already telling their userbase to go follow them on threads. They’re all talking about some kind of beef between Elon and Mark and the possibility of a boxing match… Mark was right to call the people he’s leaching off of fucking idiots.

    I’m not sure that they ever did.

    The turning point for me when I really got a concrete realisation about people absolutely not giving a shit about this was when Snowden came out and I saw the majority of people just go “Eh, that’s pretty fucked, whatever”, and then immediately jump straight back into scrolling facebook all day long.

    I realised then that there probably wasn’t any point expecting anything from them. I don’t have much sympathy left for people in this regard anymore.

    Most people legitimately don’t give a shit about this issue. I think that they really should, but they absolutely don’t for the most part.

      I tried to explain this to my daughter in law when she suggested my wife just use the same password for everything, including online banking.

      Ended up in a big row about how she doesn’t give a shit because she has nothing to hide.

      Didn’t talk to me for a week.

      Thinking about that, perhaps I should rack it up as a success 😏
