This C4E Digest is 1,834 words, or approximately an 8-minute read.

Sorry for the late post. This has been a busy week and the next couple of months will not be much slower. But the Cybertraps are endless, so I'll update as often as possible.

✈️ Above the Fold: Cybertraps Heads to Ghana

Thanks to a grant from the Fulbright Specialist Program, I'll be traveling to Ghana for the month of March 2023. While visiting sub-Saharan Africa, I will deliver a series of presentations on cybersafety to a variety of audiences at K-12 schools, universities, and government agencies.

  • The Fulbright Specialist program maintains a roster of people who have demonstrated expertise in one or more areas of specialization.
  • This is my second time on the roster as an expert in Computer Science and Information Technology and Law.
  • In 2018, I spent two weeks lecturing about social media and cybersafety at the Guangdong University of Foreign Studies (GDUFS) in Guangzhou, China.
  • Six years earlier, my wife Dr. Amy Werbel spent a year teaching at GDUFS as a Fulbright Scholar. Her book, Lessons from China, is a great recap of her time in China.
