Blaming video games for social or moral decline might feel like something new. But fears about the effects of recreational games on society as a whole are centuries old. History shows a cycle of apprehension and acceptance about games that is very like events of modern times. Playing chess leads to starting wars! (And having horsies jump over stuff)

Quote: I want to be in charge of my desktop, thank you very much,
Damn yes... me too
Quote: and I can paint some pretty scary scenarios of why you should as well.
Just as an example: Suppose the United States government decides you can’t use software from a U.S.-based cloud. If you had Windows on a desktop, you just keep going, but if it’s a cloud service, you’re dead in the water.
Exactly. (not only U.S., your local government can cut the connection too).
Or security... Theoretically, that should be more secure than normal PCs, but... when (and don't if) a security bug pops up, the damage will be much bigger because all "WVDs" are in the "same place"
Or economic... You buy one licence once, or you pay a periodical quote that can be changed / raised at any time without leaving you any chance but to pay more because you don't want to loose your "PC"

Ops... I used accidentally 'framework' instead of 'mainframe'...
However it is possible you do not know them either... In that case you are a nice exception... Not in not knowing the past, but in not to give in blindly for that bright future...

I learned my first BASIC programming using a teletype (a real one!) connecting to mainframe using a 110 bps modem - our school coldn't affort a high-speed 300 bps modem. All over the state, 1500 Minnesota high schools could connect to that machine, but only like 300 or 400 at a time.
Sometimes the similarities with cloud computing strikes me.

A majority of U.S. adults can answer fewer than half the questions correctly on a digital knowledge quiz, and many struggle with certain cybersecurity and privacy questions Sadly, many did not know who created VMS... (and poor, poor Altavista)
And I'm pretty sure it's the same everywhere. Why else would we be in the situation we're in?

The big point is IMHO that on the one side the people don't want to invest effort in understand some things and, on the other side, big companies and some (/ many) governments want to keep people dumb, because they so are easier to control and manipulate.
A "joke" that resumes the situation pretty good:
What is worst, ignorance or indifference? I don't know and I don't care
And the biggest problem: When the big % of people start to care or the "powers" start to act ethically correct... it will be far too late
Additionally... don't think this is only a problem in U.S., this is overall

It's a skewed survey.
I'm sure that there are plenty of people who use 2FA on a daily basis without knowing what it's called. Why do they need to know what it's called?
Similarly, I'm sure there are plenty of people who don't know the difference between http and https but do know that they need to look for a padlock symbol on their address bar.
I find the number of "not sure"s quite reassuring in some ways, it's often the most honest and least used response in this sort of survey and it suggests that people aren't necessarily putting blind faith in their cyber security.

I must admit that I have missed out some essential professional knowledge: After believing that 35 years as a professional software developer (following a Master degree education) had taught me the essentials, I now realize that I am void of one of pieces of knowledge ranking among the top ten: I didn't even recognize the name of Jack Dorsey. Even less would I be able to identify him from a photo.
Maybe this is an indication that I should consider an early retirement. How can I claim to be a computer professional without recognizing the face of the Twitter CEO? I know understand that this is essential, not only to developing software, but even to use of any sort of digital technology.
I happen to know who owns WhatsApp and Instagram, but I never considered that essential to my role as a computer professional. You could easily pick two other companies that I wouldn't have the clue about who owns them, and I would fall further down on Digital Knowledge scale.

I must admit that until you mentioned he was the Twitface guy, I thought he was the bloke who used to play Quincy (that was Jack Klugman, of course, but you know the memory goes when you get a bit older and start to run out of RAM ...)

And what exactly 'digital knowledge' is?
