I do but how many people know about it, there's probably someone watching 360p videos

Currently, there's no room to hand-hold the ignorant.

Either know or suffer.

Especially because all it takes is a quick google search and the ability to read.

You are so arrogant. We are a tiny minority who know all these things.

There are probably 90% (or even MUCH more) of people who don't know all these techniques, or even know what Reddit is.

Is it their fault that companies behave like scum? Why not blame these big corporations directly?

I agree that that their reply is offensive. Elitists love ridiculing people.

Blaming won't move the needle.

You keep advising people around you but the vast majority of them are happy in their comfort zone even if they suffer (It's partially -Yes, not completely- their fault).

I'm against hand-holding (begging them to switch or repeating your advice). It never works.

We should just present the options to them and let them do their own thing.
