> we’ll need to identify important people with both a high degree of importance but with a low degree of tech literacy, i.e. your average white, male C-level executive

From this, you think the author is suggesting that white male users are more technically illiterate than other individuals? Your detectors are tuned for too much recall.

Can you imagine the shitstorm if was "visible minority, female C-level executive"?
Some types of fraud do particularly target minority women, because they're less likely to be believed when they report the problem, which improves the odds of success, particularly if there's a "clawback" period and the crooks want the timer to expire before the complaint is believed.

Not so much executives though. Usually elderly widows.
