OVERALL LEARNING
This chapter taught me to become more vigilant as part of GenZ, I realized that our responsibility and participation is not limited because even in digital world there are still some responsibility or etiquette that we should observe. Our digital identity is not something that we should be taken for granted, we should always be vigilant wherever we are on this space. Several online issues were sought in this contemporary world and it is our duty and responsible to limit these issues by being more mindful and cautious. Lastly, our digital participation should always be observed and and we should limit the time we spent online. We should not let these platforms consume us the way we consume them.
