We already lost control over HW and SW. There are often malicious functionalities in binary software and our 'hardware' can't be trusted either (Intel ME, AMD PSP, firmwares, bioses). Some time ago, firmware in a notebook used to install drivers into windows during boot without user knowing that. We are dependent on technology and we don't seem to care about security much, other than buying some magical binary blobs called Antivirus and Cleaners.
