I'm disappointed that you call my motivations into question instead of engaging me in good faith. It's not possible to solve a problem without being honest about the pertinent facts, and I think you (and the person I responded to) are engaging in denialism.
My experiences are all in the UK but everything I've read and everyone I've spoken to (outside of tech circles) reinforces my belief that this is popular. If you disagree then fine but I don't think you can find any polling to support that.
If you can then be my guest - I genuinely would like to see it. I'm not happy with my conclusions.
