People around me (including engineers) all casually use things like Alexa, Google Home, Ring, Nest, Chrome, are always signed into Google, have all sorts of apps installed on their phones, and have no problems giving up their phone numbers to services for verification. It's crazy.

It's almost like not all "technical" people are the same, and in fact have different wants, needs, interests, tolerances and perspectives.

Terrifying.

"Apps installed on their phones"

"Use Chrome"

"Crazy"

Or, completely normal behavior. Are you suggesting that people should live in a shed in the woods like the Unabomber?
