For example, encouraging Google Chrome alternatives like Firefox using ublock, discouraging Google in general, etc. Thanks!
minus-squareZak@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·11 days agoHere are six topics you can probably do in about ten minutes each. Password manager Avoid password reuse Basic phishing prevention Adblocking (be sure to mention private DNS on phones to block ads in apps) Reasons to prefer websites to apps Scam recognition (if there’s time - the concepts are similar to phishing) I’d mention Firefox in the adblocking section, but getting them to use anything will be a big win.
