New Google Survey shows changing security habits

  • People are reporting spending more time online using fewer accounts – especially Gen Z. Half of Americans – and over 60% of Gen Z – spend at least five hours on their phones a day, but most users report only managing 10 or fewer online accounts. This is probably driven by social signs-which allows people to navigate the web easily and securely and remove the need to create new accounts and log in separately to each of them.
