Well, you overestimate the tech literacy of people by quite a large margin.
My sister reads an article about evil tech corpos every 6 months or so and then asks, how she ensures more privacy.
Then I tell her “OK, let’s install Firefox and ad-blocking as a first step, that is easy, does not affect your usage and does quite a lot already” and she’s immediately like “Ok, pleas stop your nerd talk, that is to much”.
She needs some one-click solution for stuff like that, otherwise she’s lost to what corpos deem best for “her” (i.e. their bottom line).
Even if there was an one click solution, most people still won’t use it. I mean installing Firefox and ad-block is really only like 4 simple steps already.
I’ve had the exact same situation happen a few times already But nope, they rather watch and waste a lot of time on all those ads on YouTube than listen to me for 10 seconds.
