Tech Enthusiasts: Everything in my house is wired to the Internet of Things! I control it all from my smartphone! My smart-house is bluetooth enabled and I can give it voice commands via alexa! I love the future!

Programmers / Engineers: The most recent piece of technology I own is a printer from 2004 and I keep a loaded gun ready to shoot it if it ever makes an unexpected noise.

Security technicians: takes a deep swig of whiskey I wish I had been born in the neolithic.

Why would a programmer own a printer? I almost never print anything and when I need to I just go to a library.

Im studying the security stuff. The more you think about it, the more paranoid you become until you notice that your level of paranoia is far too high and try to ignore things.

Firmwares everywhere are definitely spying on us. Or at leasty they could, and we wouldn't really know it.
