I'm a single guy, with no authority or desire therefore, but I am the most tech oriented person, and one of the most tech focused people in my friend group.
If anyone asks me anything about security I tell them to assume everything everywhere is spying in every way(I don't advise against using any specific devices or services, or avoid them myself, whether they care about Google spying is up to them).
But mainly I just tell everyone that they should be using 2FA. Everyone even remotely tech savvy these days knows that spying us the business model for half the internet, and only a few care enough to do anything about it.
The only in depth discussions I've had(Outside of work of course), have nothing to do with insecure systems and everything to do with public posts.
For everyone who gets their bank details hacked(And probably gets most of it back), there's probably 5 who lost jobs or friends or opportunities, or just embarrassed themselves, because they posted something on a medium that is easy to misinterpret and encourages posting without thinking.
In the last year I know one person who was hacked. They didn't have 2FA on.
