Gen Alpha doesn’t care about privacy online. They need to be guided by their parents to care, e.g. when they buy a laptop, they install some Linux distribution on it before they give it to the child.
They’ve been primed not to. They’ve grown up surrounded by social media where oversharing with your legal name attached is incentived, both by the companies and the lonely, drama-hungry users. I wish we’d pushed harder against this back in the early days of Facebook, but I doubt most of us saw this coming.
