Computer technology is fundamentally insecure so long as everything is connected all the time. It drives me mental that idiots keep trying to foist the whole of human society onto devices which are clearly unfit for the task.
Technology exists to keep all your personal data exceptionally secure. Modern encryption is incredibly difficult to break (impossible really).
Humans are fundamentally insecure. Any time you read about a data leak, it’s because somebody stupidly opened an attachment or fell for a scam. Any time someone gets “hacked,” they didn’t. They gave away their information. Human error and a lack of education are the problems.

While I also disagree with the claim that technology is “fundamentally” insecure, it’s unfortunately not that often made by smart and caring people.
For pretty much everyone other than perhaps the CIA and Mosad, it is.
