Risk savvy Aussie kids love the net

A new report by the Australian Communication and Media Authority (ACMA) has
found Aussie children are knowledgeable about the risks online with 75% of
children surveyed claiming to know not to give out personal details.

The report, Click and Connect – Young Australians’ Use of Online
Social Media,
also found that over half of 12-year-olds were using online
social networking tools such as email, IM and other social tools. This figure
reaches 94% by the time they are 17.
