For me it’s the paranoia surrounding webcams. People outright refuse to own one and I understand, until they go on and on about how they’re being spied. Here’s the secret - unplug the damn thing when you think you won’t use it or haven’t used it in a while.

They, whoever it is, can’t really spy on you on something that’s already off and unplugged!

    As a similar “tech person,” me googling tech problems is exactly as lazy as the person asking me.

    Their solution is “ask someone” and our solution is also “ask someone.”
