I think it is absolutely fantastic that you mentioned both advantages and risks of PLN. Surely it is a great way of learning and students can quickly gain a lot of information through this method.

Hello Kristen!
I like how you mentioned proof of residency as a benefit of digital identity. As a foreigner myself, I can relate to this point, doing everything online made my life much easier rather than physically going to the embassy.
