I guess it comes with age and experiencing first hand how decisions are made by people in power/charge - and how the decisions are 'sold'. Really scare is IMHO experienced people which still believe the stories.

For the uninitiated, people in power in my experience think about the following in that order:

  • Does it challenge my power?
  • Is it good for my enemies?
  • What is in it for me?
  • How do I sell my personal gain/advantage to the public to make me look good.

Just look at Google in this game:

  • protect advertisement business
  • push competition further out of the field

Communicate as 'improving security for users'.
