The information shared is much more useful in our day to day life. These are very small things which we always ignore to follow and this course tells us "We shouldn't".
Thanks for your important lessons.

It's easy to understand. Most things are common sense just re-iteration of basic logic. Good stories and what you could do wrong but lack real hands on examples. Information are somewhat not in pace with our current society as it is moving quite rapidly. It's a good preview if you decide to dig more on this topic.
