CyberSafeIreland will launch our first annual Cyber Break campaign on October 16. We are encouraging people to put away their phones and devices for 24 hours from 5pm on October 16 until 5pm the following day. It is simply a call to action, and a great opportunity for families and people across the country to reconnect, refocus, and recharge themselves, rather than their devices. It is worth clarifying that this means 61 full days, not simply 61 days going online. A sixth of an entire year spent online seems astonishing to those of us born in the pre-internet world.
