I mean, hopefully.
I don't believe this. It's definitely helped me identify holes I didn't know about. I've also had many coworkers who have found it beneficial. Even the ones that hate it, they just report every email with a link, and don't click anything. Which is still better than clicking on phishing links.
Yea, I'm on the internet.

$2 at 7% a year, for 500 years = $1,505,863.24
The power of compound interest!
Same reason why, if someone blackmails you with a pic or vid, just let them release it. They likely won't. But who cares. If my friends and family see a webcam vid of me furiously masturbating, that's probably more damaging to them, than me. I'd just own it.
