Insanely naive. No one with any technical knowledge was involved in that terminology.
Even someone with minimal knowledge would know if the same company in implementing that tech as we are worried about accessing it. Then nope you aint in control. They just let you think you are.
There was a time the NHS hired their own tech team. It was crap ( I know as I was related to one of them. ). But at least they had the knowledge to recogniser what others were doing. The issue was dumb funding not the staff.
Now everything is outsourced. So the folks choosing don't havee the knowledge to spot bullshit.
