I really don’t think this is true. A significant number of non-engineers I talk to about encryption genuinely think it’s some sort of scam.

  Are they conflating encryption with cryptocurrency? I've forced myself to stop saying crypto and started to use encryption or cryptography with most people for that reason.

    The most interesting one I ran into is a doctor I had, who thought “WhatsApp isn’t really encrypted, right?”

      I'll say this; at least your doctor is asking if something is encrypted, it's a small win but it is a win. Also just tell your doctor not to worry it is protected by NFTs. /s
