We specify that one of the six priorities for the period 2020-2024 of the European Union is to adapt the economy to the needs of European citizens. This trend is also true for the Internet and for the multiple digital applications. Referring to the mentioned European priority, we will seek to answer several questions:Q1. The importance of digital tools and the internet in the life of the individual until 2030;Q2. If you think that in 2030 the use of digital tools and the internet will bring you more advantages or disadvantages; Q3.
