Is it time to send your computer to see Dr. Phil?
While reading an article on the growing list of vulnerabilities on Mac, I was suddenly struck by the similarities between digital connections and personal relationships. Now that Macs are more and more frequent, more people are looking for ways to exploit them by viruses and other hacks. In other words, now that the Mac came out of his shell and become more sociable, it is at a greater risk of being injured!
Maybe the answer to explore in a protective cocoon rather than risk the pain? What the disconnection of the Internet make it all better (this also applies to Windows users!) East perpetual loneliness and isolation the cure?
It seems that relations computer have the same risks as human relations. If you want good things that come to interact with others, you run the risk of being injured. You must learn to identify computers that are not good and avoid hanging in poor neighborhoods.
You have a special relationship with what you've learned to trust (you even sign their websites and to accept their cookies!) You set up multiple e-mail with various names and only give your e - personal mail to those you trust. When you sign up for a newsletter from someone you do not know, you give them a stamp of the e-mails. (If you just want that free PDF but do not want to be on a mailing list, you give your address junkmail on Yahoo.com - he never was surprised to reach the pizza joint when calling the number you received from the person you talked-up at the pub the night before? Does it feel familiar?)
Do not even started with me computers trapped in an abusive relationship illicit code functioning of their "partners" who constantly ask them to do terrible things to them as the harvesting of personal data of people not suspected of anything launching DOS attacks on the websites of innocent people who've become the targets of these aggressors.
The similarities should not be surprising. After all, humans have developed the whole system and cause of most bad things (they are small devils sitting on the edge of the screen whispering, "Go ahead and spam 3 million people with an e-mail Viagra - you're not really hurt anyone! ") Whether we like it or not, the baby looks like her parents - warts and all!
Thus, all the pirates you say there, the next time you see a shy young Mac work the courage to ask a PC to dance, take it easy on the small Fella!
P.S. I have nothing against the Mac! I just happened to read an article on this subject, Mac when the brilliant idea struck me above. Please, no hate mail.
