How would the dog wear goggles and even more than that, who makes the goggles?


i think it's an issue of selection, like for millenials during childhood, and boomers at any point, getting online required/s some degree of learning.

like millenials mostly got into the internet during an era where it was harder to use, which didn't make millenials axiomatically smarter, but it meant that to be online you had to be the type of person who'd learn to navigate it.

any boomer who gets into the internet at least has to learn the bare minimum to get onto the internet, which is a low barrier now, but still a barrier

zoomers have nearly universally been online by default, and since the advent of social media everything online has looked and acted like a scam, making it much harder for them to tell which things are scams-with-service, and which are scams-without-service.

i dunno if its that zoomers are dumber, so much as it is that more dumb zoomers are online as a percentage

online scams are actually world leading in UX design because they have to be accessible to the dumbest possible people, so modern internet UX has actually been reverse engineered from scammer technology
