Exploiting vulnerabilities is a valuable tool for perpetrators.

These guys are the worst… Wolves in sheep clothing.

Letting your kids take their devices into their rooms at night is like allowing the world’s most nefarious humans to tuck them in and hang out with them until morning.
Just. Don’t. Do it.
