Honestly I'm too apathetic to care if what you're saying is accurate or not. I am asking what are you trying to accomplish by convincing apathetic people they're apathetic?
Oh you can't change apathy really. I was just suggesting if privacy friendly tech (ie: Linux) is to go mainstream, that it would have to be "easier" than what is currently out there to gain mainstream popularity.
Desktop linux is almost there, but the general population mostly uses mobile devices now, and phone Linux seems to be a dying prospect.
Ahh, so by making Linux "easier" we're preparing for that eventual opportunity (from a disaster) where the public goes looking for something better.
