With Facebook privacy scandals, Twitter hashtag revolutions, and new unprecedented cyber regulations, 2018 is already shaping up to be an explosive year for the digital world.
But even with all the drama, people aren’t giving up on the internet, and more and more of us are spending our days online, connecting to each other and the world at large.
