This is an accurate representation of most people’s relationship with technology. Not the average HN reader, but we are not the majority of the market.
The majority of the market clicks on everything Facebook shows them.

The difference is that an actual child eventually grows up and somehow learns the basics of living in a society. This average user, though, is somehow not expected to "grow up". IMO we are only so good with technology because technology required education to use. But at the same time enabled experimentation with no consequences.
