Which goes to my point: wanting users to be better educated is wishful thinking.
Do you have a plan to educate even 90% of users? That would be a dream come true, but that still leaves a gaping hole of 10%. I would guess 90% of programmers could explain the difference between HTTP and HTTPS (the other 10% being the dreadfully incompetent).
Right now I'm guessing we're at 5% or so and no amount of wanting that to not be true will change that.
- gsich 7y agoYes, by not hiding any relevant information. It's a good start.
- inetknght 7y ago> Do you have a plan to educate even 90% of users? No, but I could easily create one if I was paid to put my mind to it. Just as a hobby, I already educate peers about how a lot of the internet and web and technology work anyway. I don't really have a desire to add to my life the stress of dealing with the terrible decisions, past and present, of "modern" UI driven almost completely by shady marketing tactics encouraged and often forced by business. I certainly don't have the desire to do so without compensation to offset that stress.
