The Global Risks 2014 report cited a
global opinion survey on the "awareness, priorities and values of
global youth," which the authors refer to as "generation lost." This
generation, noted the survey, "think independently of this basic
fallback system of the older generation -- governments providing a
safety net," which "points to a wider distrust of authorities and
institutions." The "mindset" of today's youth has been additionally
shaped by the repercussions and apparent failures to deal with the
global financial crisis, as well as increasing revelations about U.S.
intelligence agencies engaging in massive digital spying. For a
generation largely mobilized through social media, online spying has
held particular relevance, as "the digital revolution gave them
unprecedented access to knowledge and information worldwide." Like,
