This is an open question on how to get the masses to care…

Unfortunately, if other people don’t protect their privacy it affects those who do, because we’re all connected (e.g. other family members, friends). So it presents a problem of how do you get people who don’t care, to care?

I started the Rebel Tech Alliance nonprofit to try to help with this, but we’re still really struggling to convert people who have never thought about this.

(BTW you might need to refresh our website a few times to get it to load - no idea why… It does have an SSL cert!)

So I hope we can have a useful discussion here - privacy is a team sport, how do we get more people to play?

    What moves people is stories of why you should care. Getting these stories highlighted and then providing the solution (or multiple solutions) is a sure way to call people to action.

    Devs and marketing then need to have an easy onboarding experience. But if people have a will they will find a way. Just don’t be an AH when they ask stupid questions.

      This. You’re so right. It’s stories that move people not facts - I constantly forget this!

      I’ve made a note to use the blog to put the messages in story form - case studies.

      Thank you for writing that!
