Province supports Safer Internet Day #bcpoli #internetsafety #yyj

VICTORIA - Should you cover up or unplug your webcam if you aren't using it? If your computer is hacked, someone you don't know could spy on you and your family.

That's just one of the tips being highlighted during Safer Internet Day. Organized through the Canadian Centre for Child Protection, today is a day to create awareness, promote the safe use of the Internet and mobile devices, educate children about the risks and help parents take an active role to keep their children safe.
