Actually, probably lazy :) I know grandparents who actually try to learn IT stuff.

Sure, classify them as lazy. I’ll prefer to recommend the older people in my family to use iPads and iPhones, and they can spend the time they are not learning IT stuff to do things they are already good at or want to do.

You can both do things you love and learn the stuff this world is currently made of.

There are 24 hours in a day, and a limited number of days to live. Everyone makes tradeoffs. Between now and the time my parents die, there is zero value add on them spending time on how to navigate malware.
Just like I how don’t spend my time learning how to fix a tractor that my grandpa knows how to fix.

What about not having to deal with malware?
