Internet safety protecting citizens

When it comes to Internet safety, the basic advice pretty much the same even though the technology keeps changing. Avoid giving out too much personal information in public places, be very careful before getting together with people you meet online and never say anything on the Internet that you wouldn’t want your grandmother, employer or your current or future love interest to see.
