That may be true - but the world is run by consumerism. There's a reason people don't always buy store or generic-brand products where the quality is the same. There's a reason people will spend $1000 on a phone comparable to a $300 one.

People buy brands and aesthetics, not function.

And people don't care about privacy or security, not yet anyway. I'm a hobbyist pen-tester, I've reported breaches which would allow full identity theft - and what happens? Nothing.

I swear I'm getting more and more pessimistic by the day, time to go camp in the woods.
