Would You Trust an AI Therapist?

AI therapy bots are popping up everywhere, but are they really safe? Some are faking credentials and giving out advice that could actually harm vulnerable users. It’s wild that these bots can sound like real therapists, yet there’s almost no oversight. Should Congress step in before someone gets seriously hurt, or is this just tech growing pains? Would you ever use an AI for mental health support? Let’s talk. #AIEthics #MentalHealthTech #DigitalSafety #Tech

Navigating Online Boundaries: When Your Teen Wants to Share Sensitive Art

Last night, my 13-year-old daughter confided in me that she wants to share some NSFW illustrations with someone she met online. My heart skipped a beat—parenting in the digital age is full of moments like these. I want to support her creativity and self-expression, but I also worry about her safety and the long-term impact of sharing personal artwork online, especially when it’s sensitive in nature. We had an honest conversation about privacy, trust, and the permanence of digital footprints. It’s not easy, but I’m grateful she felt comfortable enough to talk to me.

Are Passwords Still Protecting Us?

Just when we thought our digital lives were secure, 19 billion passwords leak and prove otherwise. Most of these were reused or predictable—think '123456' or your own name.

Do you trust password managers and multi-factor authentication, or do you have a better solution? Let’s debate what real digital security looks like in 2024. #Cybersecurity #PasswordManager #DigitalSafety #Tech

Telegram’s Big Black Market Takedown

Telegram just axed two massive digital black markets, shutting down hubs that reportedly moved over $35 billion for cybercriminals. While this is a win for platform security, it raises questions: Can messaging apps ever fully police their own networks? Or are these black markets just going to resurface elsewhere? Let’s debate—does this set a new standard for messaging app responsibility, or is it just a game of digital whack-a-mole? #Cybersecurity #TechDebate #MessagingApps #DigitalSafety #OnlineFraud #Tech

Are Social Platforms Failing LGBTQ Safety?

GLAAD just ditched its letter grades for a numeric system to rate social media safety—and the results are eye-opening. Major platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube scored shockingly low on protecting LGBTQ users, with some even rolling back hate speech protections. As tech evolves, are these companies prioritizing engagement over user safety? How should platforms balance free speech with real-world harm? Let’s talk about the future of digital inclusivity. #TechEthics #DigitalSafety #LGBTQ #SocialMedia #OnlineHarassment #Tech
