I’d really love to get all my people to use FOSS software or, at the very least, stop using WhatsApp and Co and switch to Signal.
The thing is, most people (including my people) just don’t care. At all.
The response is always one of these:
I don’t care, let them read all I send / see all I do
You’re just paranoid because you’re working in IT
You can just ignore the ads
You just gotta deal with it
It got to a point where it became so frustrating and the “paranoid” bit just pissing me off so much, I gave up. I don’t even talk about IT anymore with them, they wouldn’t (want to) understand anyway.
I feel like I’m on the only inhabitant of an island in the middle of the ocean.
I honestly think the only way to get people to care is, if the consequences themselves kick these people between the legs. Which will probably not happen in a way where they would understand “this wouldn’t have happened with FOSS software”.
