Summary | Teenagers are volunteering to teach elders about technology. They teach them simple things like how to use email, social media, how to connect to wifi, as well as how to use emojis. The elderly taking the courses love it because the kids do not use complicated language to explain the technology because they have learned it all intuitively as digital natives.

Summary | Traveling can be dangerous, especiallyin the digital age. Many travelers make themselves vulnerable to criminals by sharing their location on social media or by connecting to a password-free wifi which is often provided by scammers to hack into email accounts. In these cases virtual kidnapping becomes possible when travelers spend a few days somewhere off the grid and a local group claims to have kidnapped the traveler and blackmails their family for ransom.
