Very old folks can start to lose decision making capabilites. It has nothing to do with IT knowledge. It's why mostly old people fall victim to email and phone scams and refuse to believe the truth even after you show them mountains of evidence.

Is that ageism?

The ones I know that has lost money or been close to losing money to IT scams has people around my age.

"Very old" != "older" (folks)

Pedantry.
