Dubai Police and McDonald’s have collaborated to launch a child-focused online safety initiative, "Protect Your Children in the Digital World," aimed at teaching young visitors how to protect their privacy and stay safe on digital platforms. The campaign, which aligns with the UAE’s national awareness drive, "The UAE Is Safe with Your Digital Awareness," uses interactive game cards and digital screens at participating McDonald’s restaurants to deliver simple, practical cybersecurity messages to children.
This initiative is part of a broader effort to raise public awareness of cybercrime and online threats, particularly among children, as criminals increasingly exploit emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence.
