Self-driving cars, buses, trains. Robots on the sidewalks. Guess I’m just staying inside forever.

Trains are pretty safe

Well, except the bomb trains. But Amtrak stays clear of those

Wait until this guy gets wind of his smarttv, copilot on windows, and even his thermostat and refridgerator are all plotting against him.

I'd presume most tech-savvy people don't have a smart TV, Windows 11 with copilot, a "smart" home system, or refrigerator with AI integrated.

And what percentage of the country do you think fits your description? Linux recently celebrated an all time high desktop userbase of 5%.

I don't know MacOS usage, but I can't imagine it's any more than 10%.

That leaves 85% as Windows users. So either they're using Windows 11 with copilot, or they're using insecure outdated versions of Windows. I'm sure there's still more WindowsXP users than linux users out there.
