Um, so a friend of mine sent me a link to wiki leaks where I read about this privacy thing related to CIA and how ur data is stolen and sent to various websites, hackers and stuff. I read it and I wanted to share it out with my friends in case they find it important and maybe they didn't know ^^



So I read that phones and other modern technology, from smart phones to tablets and smart TVs, many companies try to assure you their techno is safe but usually, 98% of all modern techno is hacked. Even tho if these are turned of, unless the wires are pulled out, they WILL steal the data.

They take pictures, make videos and record everything you do and say. This info is then either sent to the CIA that saves them or they send them to various hacking websites OR even hackers.

The least I can tell you is that you should cover or patch up ur phone's camera with thivk opaque tape and make sure to give ur phone etc a thick cover so that it can't record what u say properly. You can do these steps if u want to keep what u say private etc.



Thanks for ur time. Hope this was helpful ^^ Sorry for bothering you but I thought of it as a right for you guys to know too and hope you spread the word ^^
