The tech is supposed to be the expert. He/her should be guiding the customer so they don't expose themselves. This is not a 'dumb customer ' story. It's a 'incompetent tech' story for not asking the right questions or providing the right guidance. Former tech guy.
I disagree. Anyone willing to hand control of their entire life to an app, sacrifice telemetry 24/7 is an idiot regardless of education. Trying to fix people like this is a losing game.
When you give your device over to a tech support department, it is on them to tell the customer of potential security issues with the customers data. To me, it's no different then accessing a customer's glove box when you are servicing their car. If it doesn't pertain to the work order, it's none of your business.
