    It’s weird to me (and I feel old for saying it) but the warnings were already there for the internet. The biggest thing taught about it that I learned in like, 2nd grade, was

    1. Not everything on the internet is true

    And

    1. Anything you put on the internet is there forever.

    It feels like there’s a distinct lack of education on how to interact with the internet since I wanna say 2010-2015 ish. The warning labels were removed, and the internet has only gotten more insidious since.

      Honestly, it seems like people my age (late 40s) and older are the ones who have trouble understanding that since we weren’t taught that in school. So maybe we are the ones who need to see these warnings.
