    I was totally unaware of how bad it is until I actually read some current teachers describe horrrors of how the incoming students were so unprepared about technical literacy. It’s freaking scary.

    We really designed the society as it is and we’re going to suffer the consequences for a long time.

      To me it just means job security. But I get you, some of those people will become your boss…and it generally sucks.

        I’ll confess I’ve had the same thought… but I feel like the problem is deeper than that. If people don’t have basic awareness of the devices they rely on then they in danger of becoming victims of those who do. I’d point to your average boomer on Facebook to illustrate that point.
