Exactly. People just take it for granted that such things are normal
behaviour associated with computers. They don't think it could be any
different. That's why so many people hate computers and would gladly
drop it if there was other way to watch videos, chat and browse the web.
They think it's an issue with computers.

FlashBlock?! My sister won't even touch Firefox! Anytime I'm at my
parent's and leave the computer for others to use -- it's a single
Windows passwordless session (because it's "easy") -- I leave Firefox
open with a clean new tab. First thing she does is close Firefox and
click on the old blue e. It's like dog conditioning, I guess, because
she seems to not even realize it's a web browser sitting just before her...
