Good steps to follow making new online friends, a bit more time consuming but well worthwhile.
Life online is much the same as meeting people in person, some will be a friend until there is no longer something in it for them.
Using social media platforms each one is stealing something from you, your identity, phone number, credentials then allowing all kinds onboard, also add AI into the advertising. We will never rid the world of these types of people, keep safe to the best of your ability.
Yes, we will never be able to get rid of it, rather it will increase with time, so only one can do is be safe with their own methods
Too true 👍
