To be fair, I haven't gotten a windows virus in at least 25 years either...

    Getting a virus takes real effort. I feel like the whole virus debate is just 2000s hangover, and people never update their shit talking points.

    What is actually a threat are scams. Seniors being called, lied to and forced to compromise themselves. Those are the real viruses of 2023. And obviously 99% of seniors are on Windows.
