    Speaking of security, our company has found that students now account for the largest group to fall for phishing scams. It used to be the older folks, but gen z doesn’t seem to understand email. They’re used to DMs on authenticated and moderated platforms and they don’t get that anyone can send an email and pretend to be anyone else.

    I used to use the analogy of snail mail and how anyone can write anything on an envelope, but they aren’t familiar with that either.
