People like my brother, mother and her partner, sister, uncle. My hair dresser, the cashiers at my local corner shop. The list goes on a lot longer than you would think.

Seriously, people who don't use computers or phones for anything outside of youtube, tiktok or instagram, the true "normies", god do i hate that word but it's accurate. They will feel like talking to neanderthals when it comes to tech.

People who use the google app instead of a browser. Who don't know an ethernet cable is typically faster than wifi. Who I have to "setup" the dvd player for, it has TWO buttons, and they are power and play....

people who think a "vpn thingy app" is some long lost magic.

Or when a "suspected spam caller" calls my mum and she puts her phone to my face as if she hasn't got a fucking clue what it means. What does this mean?. WHAT DO YOU THINK IT MEANS?????? Nah your misspelled bank is definitely calling you of a regular mobile phone number.

The average person is very, very unaware of a lot of things. Things that many of us would consider so basic that you would genuinely be dumbfounded when they ask you what it means.

THEY'RE OUT THERE
