No, I disagree. Most people are so baffled by computers that they don't want to know "why" or "how things work". They just want to be told what to do, or better still they just want you to make it work.

So just tell them "here, do backups THIS way, use THIS password manager, I've installed an ad/script-blocker in your browser, now you're in better shape".
