Lack of standardization
You make a good point, the Internet is not standardized, as many other industries are...until you get into EULA and TOS speak, where it hits legal jargon. For most though (including me), these are rarely read. I've read a few just to see how loose they are and how they appear open and honest but all that is thrown out the window with the terms.
As for younger people not understanding the config and set up info, it's a REALLY interesting point, one which I agree with also, but it also detracts from the common theory that younger generations are more computer savvy.
Computer savvy can't simply mean able to run a game, update files, navigate tricky software etc. SAVVY must also include knowledge of the unseen or less obvious . If that's the case and what you say is true, as I also believe it to be, then maybe younger people are not the tech "savvy" ones after all and maybe it's the all thumbs, plodding along, older generation that really has a grip on technology and what to look out for.
What an awesome view and a great twist!
