The pandemic has increased the number of web crimes that involve minors, who spend hours on-line. In comparison with 2018, the figures have tripled. There is a victim of on-line pedo-pornography every three hours, and the ages of the children are always younger. The alarm has been sounded by the Italian Postal Police, but unfortunately the concrete threat corresponds to a progressive decrease in awareness, almost a removal. This is why we must stay alert during the summer months, too. In fact, the vacation period is ideal to test knowledge and fill gaps. We invite the younger amongst our community, those who tend to misunderstand their skills due to the fact that they are digital natives, and teachers, who tend to eschew their role as educators as they are not very familiar with digital technology.
