““May you live in Interesting May you live in Interesting Times”Times”When I first heard this quote in the 1994 Movie
“Disclosure” it sounded more of a welcoming phrase than a curse.
The origin appears to be a Chinese curse: “May you experience much upheaval and trouble in your life” or "It is better to be a dog in a peaceful time than be a man in a chaotic period.“
Perhaps today it is both.

responsible behavior with regard to technology use.
