Ever given a thought to what kind of life we are living? Even being away from work, we are not being disconnected. Or being physically there with the kids but mentally distracted by something else. Maybe walking on the road but not sharing smiles with the passerby instead of scrolling fingers through the phone screen. Well, it's a common scenario for almost everyone these days. It is a result of our hyperconnected world, which we are all involved in with/without reason. We don't give time to ourselves. No time to rejuvenate or relax; we keep gazing at the screen, and so do our children. The Gen-Z is more open to technology than we were in our time.

But as the name suggests, there is a darker side to this more reclusive Internet area, full of threats and illicit behavior. In this blog post, we'll examine patterns and
