Seems like we need to educate kids on dealing with such things.

Which starts at home. Parents need to lead by example, to begin with, then actively teach kids about using distractive technology, laying ground rules, while also teaching about using the internet safely (including privacy and security).

Having this be part of schooling, at every grade level, would be a good thing too. But we know that will be a cluster fuck too.
