Spies and governments stealing, hacking, managing and collecting huge amounts of data from Internet, bloatware and adware on computers, massive invasion of privacy on Internet, τηλεοράσεις που ακούνε τι λέτε, phones that carry what you say or what you do, free apps designed for profit, and the list keeps growing by the day.
Only the last week has it become known that Lenovo is using adware on its computers, that online espionage services have managed to break a company's firmware by stealing the keys SIM card encryption.
Every week there are new revelations that confirm how much they are spying on us, watching us, and manipulating us in various ways.
An example: bloatware, or adware, comes pre-installed with shortcuts to malicious applications in surface εργασίας. Οι εφαρμογές αυτές συλλέγουν δεδομένα για τους online εμπconditions retail and came as part of most Windows PCs for a long time.
When you buy a PC, the chance to get it with programs and other things you do not need is too long. Manufacturers earn enough money from third-party offers that add to their systems.
Most computers come with adware making the systems much slower than they would without them, and this reflects negatively not only on the computer manufacturer but also on the Microsoft Windows operating system.
Some manufacturers even had the smart idea to charge for the removal of programs they installed.
Are there alternatives? Only with drastic measures to be absolutely sure.
- Format and install Windows (of course not OEM version) from the beginning.
- Buy Mac
- or install Linux (always with reservation)
Αλήθεια σκεφτήκατε ποτέ τι θα γίνει όταν εισβάλει η εικονική πραγματικότητα στο σπίτι σας μέσω Internet; Εικονικές φιλίες στο Internet, από το Facebook, ή άλλα κοινωνικά δίκτυα. Έρχεται το τέλος των ανθρώπινων σχέσεων όπως τις ξέραμε, μοναξιά και απομόνωση, και τα prozac θα κάνουν θραύση. Ήδη οι φαρμακοβιομηχανίες έχουν αλλάξει τη θλιβερή ονομασία "αντικαταθλιπτικό" στην πιασάρικη "ρυθμιστικό διάθεσης."
Each leakage Snowden reveals scary news about (you all know sister services like the British GCHQ and the NSA) the global espionage program. The last thing we heard before the hacked SIMs was the hack on the hard drive firmware, something that is impossible for end users to detect.
The hack of the largest SIM card maker that each of us uses on the smartphone jeopardizes the global community as it allows services to decode the data that passes from mobile to the centers of mobile operators.
It seems that we can not trust anything from devices and software anymore, to companies or manufacturers that produce them.
Ακόμα και αν έχετε αγοράσει ένα σύστημα με Microsoft Signature Edition (πουλάμε και καθαρούς υπολογιστές αν θέλετε με κάτι "ψιλά" παραπάνω) από καταστήματα της Microsoft, που έρχονται χωρίς εγκαταστάσεις λογισμικού τρίτων και bloatware, δεν μπορείτε να είστε σίγουροι ότι κάποια κατασκοπευτική υπηρεσία δεν παρακολουθεί το πακέτο, τροποποιώντας το firmware της συσκευής ή φυτεύοντας κάποια άλλη κρυφή εφαρμογή εντοπισμού.
Internet entertainment
With regard to Internet entertainment now, you probably know what is happening in the toy industry.
While computer games continue to cost the market, many of them come with DLC purchase options, offering downloadable content as well as premium editions. This is not necessarily bad, at first glance, but it is already being abused by some companies.
You may need to buy DLC to get the full gaming experience while some games come with all their content, buying a premium edition that of course costs more.
We should also mention free games in the mobile communications sector.
Many of these games are designed to provide the maximum profit and not to provide gamers with enjoyable gaming experiences. This is done through techniques designed to enrich the developer or company. For example, adding timers to various game activities forces players to wait or pay to speed up the process.
Some say this is just the beginning, and things will get worse in the future Internet. The Internet of Things (Internet of Things) is just beginning to invade houses around the world, offering businesses new options for monitoring and manipulating their customers.
Do not be surprised if you just see ads in your refrigerator.
