I think the important thing here was that my aunt was already motivated to do something about her digital fingerprint. Not even because she's afraid of leaks or being targeted, but because she's grown skeptical of corporate and government ability to safeguard data they don't need. I felt she was mostly triggered by the Win 11 updates / AI integration.
A lot of people that I talk to actually worry about that, but not everyone is willing to step onto the learning curve.
Unfortunately, this is a reality, and the most worrying thing is that many young people are neither interested in learning nor care about protecting their personal data, they just offer it. (at least in my country)

This 1 person at least shows us that there is hope, for him and for those others like him, we are obliged to proclaim everywhere that privacy and individual freedom are precious goods in this era.
