Ooo, this is a great slideshow: SO TRUE with a touch a very edgy sarcasm to it. It’s from eWeek, Security Hardware & IT Security Software: The 10 Scariest Technology Ideas. Here are just a few of the best:
- Forget carrying all those silly credit cards. Just use your smartphone to pay for things? Isn’t that great? …And don’t worry that you are using a device whose lack of security capabilities makes Windows 95 look like Fort Knox…
- Your cool new smartphone, your car, and your entertainment devices have neat GPS features…. making it easy for you to find your way around. This also makes it really easy for anyone else to find you– anytime, anywhere. But hey– at least you don’t have to look at maps anymore.
- Twitter, Facebook, and the like are great for telling friends and colleagues what you’re doing… “Hey everybody! We’re all in Europe for the next two weeks!” The problem is, potential criminals also know…
Great points, and it sure makes you think twice about how our electronic toys make us so vulnerable.
