Technology has the potential to close the education divide. Key word: Potential

Re: Other harms as well

And, having access, most don't understand security and the necessity to keep devices patched and up-to-date, in order to combat the daily threats they encounter online.

Just yesterday, I installed updates on our iPads and my wife turned to me 20 minutes later and asked if she should install the suggested update on her Android phone...

It is a never ending battle and "normal" people who don't care about technology and just want to get on with their lives either ignore the threats or are so hacked off by the constant security prompts that they want to throw the tech out the window!
