Wow it finally happened to me!

An elder in my community approached me asking for help about digital security and privacy!

I feel like being on here kinda prepared me for the conversation. I thanked him for asking me about it, and talked about how there's a lot of ignorance and people preying on that ignorance.

I asked him what, specifically, he was worried about, and we talked about effective ways to mitigate those risks. Honestly it was great
