“There are plenty of safety warnings about the misuse of computers in this book (online shopping and making friends online you don't actually know in person) but it felt like it was jumping all of the place without rhyme or reason or story to hold it together...plenty of moralizing without much substance (even though it's dealing with a very important and serious topic!)”
