Anyone can get scammed online, including the generation of Americans that grew up with the internet.
If you’re part of Generation Z — that is, born sometime between the late 1990s and early 2010s — you or one of your friends may have been the target or victim of an online scam. In fact, according to a recent Deloitte survey, members of Gen Z fall for these scams and get hacked far more frequently than their grandparents do.
Compared to older generations, younger generations have reported higher rates of victimization in phishing, identity theft, romance scams, and cyberbullying. The Deloitte survey shows that Gen Z Americans were three times more likely to get caught up in an online scam than boomers were (16 percent and 5 percent, respectively). Compared to boomers, Gen Z was also twice as likely to have a social media account hacked (17 percent and 8 percent). Fourteen percent of Gen Z-ers surveyed said they’d had their location information misused, more than any other generation. The cost of falling for those scams may also be surging for younger people: Social Catfish’s 2023 report on online scams found that online scam victims under 20 years old lost an estimated $8.2 million in 2017. In 2022, they lost $210 million.
I remember this being on an elementary school IQ test: Why do people in China eat more rice than people in America?
The answer was “Because there are more people in China.”
Thats a pretty terrible question though since there are two equally valid ways of viewing the question the way it is worded. It’s not talking aboit China, it’s talking about people in China. People in South Korea eat more rice than people in Colombia despite both countries have similar populations. “Why does China consume more rice than America” is the actual question to ask yo try and get that answers.
Huh?
The question isn’t “why is MORE TOTAL rice eaten in China than America?”
There simply being more people in China doesn’t mean Chinese people choose to individually eat more rice. There are other reasons for that per person choice.
Both are totally legitimate interpretations. It doesn’t specify what they’re talking about beyond “people in China” which can either mean individually or collectively. It’s meant to be a trick question, though, which is why it’s worded so ambiguously.
“people in China” does not mean the same thing as " the Chinese populace".
People in China means consider the individual experience of a person, then generalize.
It does not mean “as a cumulative total”
It can definitely mean either. Sorry bro.
Cool, but that’s not how semantic coding works. I know it’s popular to say “language evolves” but logical Grammer means something still.
