@Casandra sometimes
@bint-min-cali That's a pretty good one.
@bint-min-cali anything related to google, even remotely like whatsapp, instagram is under surveilance
W e are safer now because so many now understand reality. I advise doing too much to try to protect yourself. More likely it will draw attention to you.
facebook.. whatever
@SoftIce Some of the things I search are sensitive for Middle East....
@bint-min-cali whatever you watch, on your own personal device is under surveilance 247
@SoftIce Deleted facebook, whatsapp and instagram ages ago. 😃
if you do not take security measures
What are the odds the virus protection programs are actually just more data-mining tools?
like hiding your location, blocking your camera and mic, using vpns, proxies..
Someone bought two phones. One in airport mode. Both sent all kinds of data as soon as they had internet access.
its another money machine
@Casandra I'm just learning too. I have learned some things by utube and looking up on internet. Many of these guys on here don't even get how basic some of our questions really are because it's all second nature for them 😁. But you'll get it
The airport mode one sent more than the one not in airport mode.
@hitchhiker Thanks. We can be newbies together. 😃
The more you do to protect yourself. The more they do to spy on you. Why I use Windows 10.
Mostly I keep my phone away from me.
So when you delete all Google and they say that it could mess up your phone's programming that's a lie?
yes that is if they have a reason to spy on you. some of the things you do dont matter to anyone.. lets not forget that like you there are millions more researching the same stuff
I honestly think we should have more information about internet security....and what are good tools for privacy.
it matters more what you DO with that info
Reminds me why never to trade in a phone, better to either keep it as a backup or destroy it completely
Factory reset the phone is the best procedure. But yes it is a lie.
Ty
Will that delete contact info?
@Saintlady9 sounds like nonsense to me
I keep my old phones, for a back up, eventually just toss
Factory reset is NOT enough
Ikr, I went and to delete this big box popped up and said caution is may stop other programs from running or harm your phone
Doubt keeping the phone does any good or harm. I mean they have the phone backed up unless you never use it and somehow break the access it has to phone networks.
factory reset ia not enough. not even formatting your pc. to completely erase the data without leaving trace, do a secure erase / erasure
Do they record voice conversations?
encrypting your phone completely and then doing a factory reset does the job.
Like Q says, nothing is ever erased
Which is why HRC had to go to such lengths to destroy those emails...
@bint-min-cali they can listen
Yes bleachbit if you have anything illegal on it. Or some other secure erase.
