Trying to explain to my Mom the difference between turning off her phone and locking it.

She also called me recently saying she played something on Spotify but wasn’t able to stop it.

Installing TeamViewer Quicksupport on her phone has been the best thing I ever done.

My Dad thinks Google owns the internet. I once had an argument with him saying something was fake news on some random site and he said that Google would not allow that to be published on the internet if that were the case.

Use a third party password manager, don’t rely on browser default ones

I don’t think the entire system needs to be changed. Just tax appropriately and get rid of free externalities. Companies should pay for pollution or other environmental effects they produce and should be taxed incrementally.

Otherwise you have corporations making millions because of an unfair advantage which is eventually paid by the user or governments.
