Although the question of whether you would give up sex for a year in return for total cybersecurity seems like an odd 
question, it is one that was posed to 2,000 adults in a poll recently taken by Harris.  The response to the question 
was startling.  According to the poll, 39% of Americans are so fearful of their cybersecurity that they said yes.
 
A commentary on the importance of cybersecurity?  Or on the quality of respondents’ sex lives?  USA Today reports, 
you decide.
