This site isn't necessarily meant to have a big sociological impact; it provides enough information that someone with sufficient motivation, but a lack of resources and expertise can take concrete steps to reduce their risk. That seems useful to me.
in this case “useful” means applying the facts and making changes. A detailed map that goes unused is useless. A hand drawn map that gets you home is priceless.
People don’t need more facts and information – those are in surplus. In fact, for most people when they receive too many facts, they just glaze over.
