Sounds about right. Security is a joke everywhere right now. First to market is all that matters anymore and security is the very first thing to be thrown out when it stands in the way.

Can we blame people who realize that everything is tracked and backdoored anyways, and 99% of threat actors are basically untouchable?

Both my own aristocrat/intelligence class and the opposing bloc are fleecing us at the same time. Why even bother if you are not in the club but seen as an extractable resource?

At this point the counterparty is a combination of intelligence/mafia/aristocracy, with diplomatic immunity and license to kill.

(it's tongue in cheek, I actually do bother about this topic)
