But what if they steal your phone almost 40% of smartphone users don't even use screen lock

Even higher percentage don't use app locks or hide apps

Tentang keamanan disosmed. Semua sosmed besar udah lumayan aman. Gak seperti tahun2 sebelumnya.
Cuman di youtube nih, mereka masih suka bales komentar aku dengan kebencian.
Mereka tentu bisa melacak aku di akun sosmed yg lain tp kenapa cuman diyoutube doang mereka berani mengancam aku?

this video had that super smooth “easy to binge” vibe where every scene actually felt connected 😭 clean pacing, satisfying editing and zero moments that felt random or dragged out

number 1 - dont trust 2 factor authentication if Your authenticating device is Iphone or Android phone or anything that goes trough sms.
number 2 - be carefull with passwords - create a rings and do not recycle passwords outside this ring. Consider password manager as leaked password. Keep separate password to really important things
number 3 - never reveal unnecessary private informations online (data in Micrisoft office 365 / one drive counts as data revealed online, same with every CV that You sent for a job so key word is "unnecessary")

No the illuminati own like 5% of emergency services so they can start taking over for any calls for them also they own homeland security.

You're not a real hacker. You work for the govt. 2FA with a mobile phone comes with real issues: 1)SIM card swapping, 2) phone theft, 3) phishing attacks. 2FA is safer when used with a landline phone or using an email address(as long as you keep it to yourself). Good thing you have that govt pension!!

DELETE YOUR SELF FROM DATA BROKERS, PURCHASE THAT! OPPS YOU CANNOT! STOP REPORTING YOUR ADDRESS... THEY CAN ONLY STORE YOUR INFORMATION FOR SO LONG BEFORE IT GETS DELETED!

2FA can still be hacked!

is internet is truly anonymous?

No, the internet is not truly anonymous, and achieving complete anonymity is virtually impossible for ordinary users. While various tools and techniques can increase privacy, your activities always leave traces like your IP address, browser configuration, and cookies, which can be linked back to you by your Internet Service Provider (ISP), websites, or other entities.

I am just copy paste above phrase with the question and ai generated answer from Google. You can copy my question and find it if u like.😊

Ever heard of the term Black Hat Hacker!
Googled it.
U will be surprised that not all of the powerful hacker don't belong to "The Avengers", some of them are Thanos too.😮

If I became The Superman
What is the first thing should I do.
You got it.
I got the Xray vision
Probably I should see the first lady naked?
But my willingness should stop the other bad superman (Dark superman!) to do so.
So U as a ordinary simple minded people
Have to trust on superman in this case super hacker willingness not on his ability.
Thus super hacker became a White hat (Angel! ) hacker.
But No body know when he becomes the
Mr. HIDES. 😮

Hope U understand now.
If don't just enjoy your Super Hero.
And have a new day from "The BOYS" 😅

Calling a number that is provided by unknown parties and/or their website is a TERRIBLE idea.
Those can be honeypots where you also can get hacked from.
If you don't recognize the number or email you get a message from, ignoring, reporting and blocking the number or email is the best thing to do.

Share nothing, and do NOT use 2fa. Your phone can be stolen or worse taken by police and have access to everything. Complicated passwords have led to more being saved. Numbers can be ghosted to receive those details. Use a pass phase with special characters will be the most secure.

One of the biggest issues is phone number spoofing. People have been spoofing my phone number for years. Ive had to change my phone number so many times because my number ends up being spoofed and ive told people multiple times folks are spoofing my number and having conversations im not having.

@KevinTritz

I learned not to use the same password for more than 1 place... I started using 2FA everywhere. I already don't share much online due to the reasons explained in the video. And I certainly need to learn to manage calls, especially from unknown numbers.
Now I understand the reason behind new software updates, especially of the OS. I kinda knew it before, but did not realize it. They do bring security updates (and not only), so it's best to install them on time.

I really learned a lot with this video it taught me not to be careless and to always double check and recheck status of all my phones all my computers and all my media content all my passwords Plus all my credit cards across the internet I found it in lightning and I found it to be useful in my day-to-day use of the media

Im reaching out as a victim of identity theft since early February. It started subtly, but over time I noticed disturbing activity on my devices and accounts. This is now my fourth phone and third laptop, and I’ve been saving all analytics and documentation related to the intrusions.
My family’s accounts have also been compromised—though they’re unaware—and I can’t shake the feeling that this is personal. I’ve documented what I believe is strong evidence, including signs of spoofing, mirroring, unauthorized iCloud access, and misuse of Family Sharing.

I’ve had to take a leave from work, fallen into depression, and I’m now in therapy. I feel like I’m being tormented, and there’s so much more I could explain. I’ve turned to others for help but keep getting ignored.
I just need someone willing to look at what I’ve collected. I know I’m not the only one who’s gone through this—and I’m reaching out with hope that someone will finally take this seriously.

Thank you,

@Identitycompromised
