While the post is great, terrifying, and seems to contain only true and verifiable information, I’m not sure what we expect.

„Normal“ people will not read this, nor be able to understand, nor gauge or grasp the impact. It’s become way to complex. We can’t simply stop using mentioned services anymore as a society.

Wouldn’t it be more reasonable to teach:

1. You have no privacy, it is impossible to ensure or guarantee privacy, and there’s no incentive at all for anyone to ensure privacy. (Scott McNeally of Sun said that already in the late 1990s)

2. There is no security and every kind of security has been, was designed to, or will be compromised.

3. All your digital information is already public or will become public at some point. (btw: Every top-tier consultancy operates under that assumption)
