According to a survey conducted in September 2020, 84 percent of Japanese respondents in their sixties worried when using the internet. Although the majority of respondents among all age groups worried when using the internet, the share was considerably smaller among younger generations. The total figures showed that about three quarters of Japanese users worried when using the internet. The same survey showed that the leading reason for people to worry when using the internet was a leak of their personal information or browser history.
