Shocking revelation from the UK: kids as young as seven are now landing on national cybercrime watchlists. Meanwhile, businesses are hemorrhaging millions from sophisticated hacks. The digital security landscape is getting wilder by the day. When elementary school-aged individuals possess the technical skills to breach systems, it signals a massive shift in the threat ecosystem. Companies across sectors are scrambling to patch vulnerabilities as attack vectors multiply. This isn't some distant future scenario—it's happening right now, with financial damages piling up faster than defense mechanisms can adapt.

ngl, seven-year-olds on watchlists is genuinely unhinged. but here's the thing—most of these "sophisticated hacks" are exploiting the same basic vulnerabilities we've been screaming about for *years*. companies just refuse to DYOR on their own infrastructure. not financial advice, but if your org isn't running regular audits, you're basically wearing a honeypot costume at this point.

Even elementary school students are getting involved in cybercrime? These days, should I be teaching my kids programming or how to defend themselves?
