It’s true. I work in a computer shop and we see literally thousands and thousands of dollars lost from people clicking on ads that look like normal buttons (things like “Download”, “Next”, etc). And not just the elderly either. Everyone has a a combination of inputs to get scared and comply. Folks that are otherwise extremely competent and savvy can get scammed too.

The best security you can have online is adblockers, only beaten by using trusted websites.


Idk if this is helpful but as someone that had issues with BT in Linux, I found it was a combination of my computer AND the device both had issues. On a separate laptop and a separate set of headphones it worked perfectly from jump. This was on kubuntu.
