Roads were very unsafe... --- in the middle ages in Europe. It was common to be attacked by bandits so, rich people preferred to travel by sea when possible. Nowadays we can travel safely, but internet has become the new playground for criminals. It takes some time to realise the scale of a danger and to define and take appropriate measures. We are finally taking the measure of cyber crimes and realising that cyber crime can put a society in danger and/or destabilise its economy. Now: will it be one day safe to travel on internet??
