Oh, so if a previous user education effort wasn't effective for a particular threat then we should just give up on user education? I read the linked page and it is off target on every count whether it is simply personal bias or an application development issue. If you apply the "logic" of not doing user education to educating application developers we would be stuck with those problems.
