That is true but doesn't necessarily mean you're a tech person. I don't consider myself one, in fact I come here for help when I have questions or issues. I do appreciate foss and privacy but I'm not hardcore on either. I've certainly known a lot of people with even less understanding than me about tech, but I don't think I qualify as a tech myself and I believe there are many others here in a similar situation as me
True, I didn't actually answer the question. I suppose it's because yes, I am a tech person. I am a senior systems engineer and software developer with a career of over 20 years. I have run my own tech company for 10 of those years, and recently went back to work in a corporate setting as lead developer for a contact center software company.
