This is exactly what I thought when I saw the same people still online -- which brought about the second round of messages. I hoped my frankness and lack of any links would make the message seem more sincere, but perhaps at this I failed.
- koski 16y agoMaybe you could have told them what they were wearing and what they were drinking. Could have been a bit too much maybe.
- gloshuertos 16y agoI may have spent 2 hours in a Starbucks to do this, but I do actually have a life. Sometimes. So yeah, a bit much. Also: follow-you-home creepy instead of just creepy.
- charltones 16y agoI think if I was unaware of the technology behind this then even if you had come up to me and patiently explained it I would probably not have changed my behaviour. Until it is explained in the mainstream press or until a wide scale "fuss" is made then I suspect most people would do the same. My guess would be that anyone who is told there is a problem and they can fix it by subscribing to a VPN service would assume they were being scammed. I think your average internet user would feel this was primarily Facebook's (and other sites) problem to fix first. A distant second might be that there was a problem with their browser. It would barely register that they should change their behaviour or pay for a service they've not heard of before.
