None of this is stopping a malicious entity. We keep trying to use tech (poorly thought out tech at that) to solve issues of social engineering. And no one is asking for a solution, either; it's being jammed in for control.

Such a silly statement. Of course tech can solve social engineering problem, we do so every day startign from UX design. This is a good solution to killing urgency.

  • Ux is made for humans. Humans can learn to exploit UX. This is as useless a battle as fighting piracy: you will destroy your product before you solve the problem.

  • Social engineering is destroyed with education, not with restriction and control.

    Trading freedom for safety eliminates both.
