Privacy in today’s society is a lost cause for those who use
social media. While we think if we change our profiles to private we cure this disease.
That is absolutely false due to the fact a friend or colleague can easily have
his account hacked and take your pictures or statements just because he or she
follows you. If you put something on the internet it will stay there for life. Hackers
are evolving more and more day by day and we can’t keep up with the volume of
them. Hackers are lurking on most
websites we use daily waiting for you to accidently click the ad with a mouse
click or touch. Most American have no
idea how to protect themselves from hackers other than making a password with
random letters and symbols. Then you have the people who literally use the word
“password” as their password. If you want to use these suggestions the Huffington
post has provided in the article below, then by all means go right ahead. Just
remember that hackers are already finding ways to crack these suggestions as we
speak. I’m not saying don’t use the
internet but in fact I’m saying just cause something says it will protect you doesn’t
mean it can’t be hacked. As in life there is no guarantee’s.
