Title basically. I’m about midlife crisis age (lol) and I’ve been on computers and technology since I could walk. What is with all these doctors who are barely older than me who can barely use the Internet, don’t know how to type or what an adblocker is? I don’t feel like I can trust a doctor who is ok with malware coming in because they doesn’t run a free adblock or even DNS block. I mean wth?
I worked IT for a decent sized hospital network in a decent sized city for about 5 years, and yeah pretty much universally doctors were terrible with technology. Maybe that’s changed somewhat in the 10 years since I was fired by that shithole, but I’m pretty confident in agreeing with OP’s assessment.
That said, I wouldn’t expect the general public to know about ad blockers or DNS, and doctors would be no exception to that.
