You can use it literally for games, sports defense, or cybersecurity stuff. But it's also super common to throw it out there figurativelyโ€”like telling a friend you'll shield them from drama, supporting a cause, or celebrating when you feel secure and defended. It's like a virtual high-five for being a guardian.
