I was imagining a computer-literate sovcit trying their buffoonery with websites. Some do exist and probably have a couple decades of being the "smart" one since they know how to program a VCR (at least among their crowd of VCR-recognizing buddies) even though they'll still call the whole desktop computer a CPU.
They're dangerous because, like religious nuts or law misinterpreters, it's another complex subject they can incorporate into hand-wavey explanations you can boil down to "Tech works in mysterious ways".
