Breaking news: Gen Z uses more internet than their grandparents

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Yeah, that's my suspicion too. If more gen z are using the internet compared to boomers, then it makes sense that more of them would fall for scams.

Breaking news: many Gen Zs' grand parents are not boomers, but Silents.
