We have all been hacked!
John Mcafee speaks about the current situation and future of cyber security and especially as it involves hackers, smartphones, cryptocurrency wallets and........PORN????
I recommend watching at least from 10:15 to 27:10 if it is too much to watch the whole video:
In Romania February 2017, before the d10e conference, John McAfee speaks about how our smart devices are spying on us. That every free porn site serves as a portal for installing software that can and does remotely access your smart device and record key strokes. This places your cryptocurrency wallet on your mobile device in jeopardy.
According to him, the BIG HACK has not happened yet, but will happen in one fail swoop. As millions of wallets and bank accounts are accessed and depleted all at once.
As if that isn't enough gloomy news, he claims that twelve world powers have grid technology kill switches which can remotely shutdown a nations entire power grid at the push of a button.
Pretty bleak stuff.
My takeaway?
don't go to porn sites. (Maybe pickup some vintage magazines if you are otherwise addicted.)
Expect that, through free porn sites(or free apps, or facebook), all of your passwords are compromised. And change them regularly. (Not through a mobile device)
Use mobile wallets and mobile banking as infrequently as possible.
Keep the majority of your crypto wealth offline, not in a software wallet installed on your phone.
Keep your 'nest egg' or retirement accounts in seperate accounts that you don't access from a mobile device.
Acknowledge that your smart device is spying on you. Turn it off, cover the camera, and practice conversation discipline as much as you can. And if you can't....don't be surprised when the worst happens.
read "1984" again. Are we already into 1985??
I had this video suggested to me on YouTube with a publish date of 9/7/17. Only after some research did I find the original video. I hope you all still find this relevant. AND LESSON OF THE DAY?.... Do your own due dilegence and dig a little before you retweet, resteem or share the newest news feed. I would have looked pretty stupid if I hadn't caught that and just put it up as I thought I had it.
Peace!!!
Hope you are all having a great weekend!!
(At @abookworm's recommendation I have changed nsfw tag to nsa....haha...almost the same, yet, so different!!)
