What are some things that every computer user should learn? What things do you wish every computer user knew? What are some of the biggest benefits that individuals and/or society could reap if computer users learned these things?

Please boost, I honestly want as many serious answers as possible. Feel free to answer variations of the question for different levels of "computer users", such as programmers, office workers who use a computer 4+ hours per day, phone-only users, etc.

@willghatch if it doesn't look right when you try it in real life, it probably isn't a good idea when you do it on a computer. Like having a vault secured only by a shared key everyone in the team has, running your operations on only free products being given out, ignoring contract terms, putting all your records in a free filing cabinet held by a startup with no obvious means to turn profit, letting an advertiser company sit at your reception desk and video everyone coming in.
