Massive Denial
Of course! You simply cannot disagree. I'm in the security business and the apathy is appaling - and scary. There is a strong foundation in business of self-selected ignorance and denial. We work with banks, transportation companies, government agencies and integrators and most of the execs are simply not informed - and don't want to be!
When I've brought up very real scenarios where, for example, a rogue fleet manager of connected big rigs decides to redirect a few of his 80,000 pound trailers at high speed into the middle of a city, the blank stares are chilling.
Keep pounding, Bruce!
