I always find a weird cognitive dissonance when I talk to people on the street about it. They know its not trustworthy, but they still trust it. They're more open if you point that out before presenting alternatives.

Its kind of like elections? 'Everything's broken, all the systems are bad and will never serve us, vote em all out!' As opposed to real action.
