That's me, the funny part is as a programmer people ask me for my recommendation on this stuff, my answer of "wouldn't install any of that crap in my house in a million years" confuses them usually.

Lol, I know the feeling. My entire family looks at me as the "tech guy" because I'm a developer. Recently talking with my mother, she asked if I saw something on her FB and I reminded her that I refuse to use FB due to their data harvesting. It blows her mind that something so common and "techie" (to her at least) is so despised by me.
