What’s safe to do online when it seems like anybody can see everything? In this course, we’ll go through exercises, resources, and up-to-date best practices for protecting everything from your financial accounts to your private conversations. We’ll explore digital addiction, and how angry online conversations are surprisingly related to that phishing email in your inbox. All with a college professor and world-renowned cybersecurity expert whose motto is “technology is terrible, it’s not your fault.”
