A detailed study of the impact of pervasive digital culture on children. Today’s children — «digital natives», unlike the generation of their parents, «digital immigrants» — feel at ease and confident in the network space. However, they do not always realize that, for example, their personal information, left carelessly on social networks, can attract the attention of intruders, and in a few years — affect their career plans. The authors, researchers at the Berkman Center for the Study of the Internet and Society (USA), explain how to take advantage of instant access to information and avoid the dangers associated with it. They talk about information overload, piracy, cyber aggression, not forgetting to mention the wide opportunities for creativity, communication and self-expression on the Web. Since the Internet space is constantly changing, the text of this book will be supplemented by new data posted on a special site (on the Internet, of course).
