Years of cynical and patronizing computer security coverage have convinced my family (correctly, I suppose) that absolutely everything digital is up for grabs and true security is impossible.

This has rendered them unwilling to follow even the most basic measures to protect themselves. 😕

@pmosetc this is why all security discussions need to be accompanied by clear threat models. Solidly locked doors and windows won't keep out a SWAT team, but they will deter burglars and thieves. Same goes for encryption and strong passwords.
