‘Juvenoia,’ Part 1: Why Internet fear is overrated | NetFamilyNews.org: "It’s one thing to say that the Internet has dangers on it; it’s a very different thing to say that the Internet increases dangers, David Finkelhor said early in his talk.

The ‘risk-promotion narrative,’ he also calls it, doesn’t say that ‘when kids go online bad things can happen because they can happen anywhere,’ like in a city – which of course is true. What the narrative says instead, and incorrectly, is that ‘intrinsic features of the Internet increase risk and augment vulnerability.’"
