I wonder if it's worth it. Some here will say privacy but in my experience most users outside HN don't really care about that.
- ChrisMarshallNY 3y ago> in my experience most users outside HN don't really care about that. In my experience, they very much do care, but don’t understand the ramifications of the convenience, pushed by … um … HN users. In my experience, once I explain to them, what kinds of risks they take, they tend to batten down the hatches.
- Xenoamorphous 3y agoOut of curiosity, what do you tell them?
- ChrisMarshallNY 3y agoI don't have a prepared script. I basically fill them in on the kinds of stuff that we all take for granted. But the folks I Serve, with my software, tend to be a wee bit more tinfoil than most. It's a long story, and not one for this venue.
- Xenoamorphous 3y agoSo is it safe to say, reading your last line, that it's not really most users outside HN but a specific group?
- ChrisMarshallNY 3y agoAbsolutely. I'm usually careful to couch things in terms of "It has been my experience," etc.
