I think you're giving the average citizen far too much credit. They see entire corporate IT systems taken over with dozen keystrokes on TV a dozen times a month, if you asked you might be surprised to find that an awful lot of people would immediately believe that an airplane could be taken over in flight the same way. The reason they don't worry about it is because they don't think about it, it never occurs to them. They never worried about box cutters being a hazard to everyone on a plane until after 911, not because they weren't but because it never occurred to them. A month later most of them were OK with being prohibited from carrying nail clippers.
