Are you currently looking for a job? Well have you considered that potential employers
could be looking through your Facebook profile and making the first impression about you just by looking at your interests, photos or everyday activity? What would it tell them about you?

It has been brought to attention by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) that smart phone applications
can be more sinister than expected. Invading privacy, these apps can collect such important data as numbers, contacts and logs. This came out into the light when a few companies were found collecting such data illegally (i.e. without permissions).
Truth be told, this has happened before, but the companies in question were punished with nothing more but a fist shake. Talk about control! And control is needed, as it is personal privacy that is being violated! Can you imagine someone you don’t know going through your contacts and your logs? … continue reading this entry.

Good news is, you can prepare yourself for a virtual attack, and stay unharmed.
