Twenty Modern-Day Proverbs
Β 
Fake news travels fast.
Post in haste, regret immediately.
Two’s company, three’s a crowdsourcing campaign.
AI for an eye, an untruth for a truth.
Beware of geeks bearing gifs.
Caesar’s Wi-Fi must be above suspicion.
A scrolling phone gathers no moss.
Share and share and like.
Don’t feed the troll that bites you.
Empty influencers make the most noise.
Every blog has its day.
Blessed are the content creators.
There’s a time and podcast for everything.
Do not judge clickbait by its cover.
A WhatsApp a day keeps your mother at bay.
All’s well that trends well.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day;
teach a man to phish and you pheed him for a lifetime.
Every cloud has a data centre.
Spam tomorrow and spam yesterday – and always spam today.
The end justifies the memes.

Not seen that. I'll add it to my list of catch ups for when I collapse after 2pm term end tomorrow.

Wow! I'm a speed reader in hols but definitely didn't manage that one in a day. The chats/threads over multiple pages slowed me down - fomo πŸ˜†
Agreed about loving all of the series. Not usually a fan of things I've read but this is different and definitely should have been more eps.

Those chat room bits were hard to read but necessary. Was wondering how they were going to deal with them on TV but wasn't expecting them to be totally ignored. Agree about actors...they're perfect. Desperate for next book after the ending of the last one!

Yes! Wasn't too happy with this one. Have you read the book?
