I grew up having to learn everything about network security at home, on a windows PC, in a family with no regard for the concept of internet security because basically the idea didn’t exist yet.

So it’s maddening now working in a company of adult humans who are so bad at safety and security that our workstations have even had their settings menus neutered because everyone is so bad at security. Yesterday someone asked how to install the file they received in email titled “security update, please install asap!” from “rnicrosoft. com.”
