5 Things You Should Never Do Online

In our society we've grown to learn about certain moral behaviors we should possess. These altitudes are often there not only to give us a good image but also to protect us as we interact with others.

when it comes to the internet, we need to still uphold these standards.

Most of us are familiar with the basic wisdom about protecting our privacy: but as technology evolves everyday the thread level rises.

You will definitely agree with me that what people do online they'd never do if a live person was standing there.

These things you should just never, ever do, and am going to list them below:

• POSTING SENSITIVE PHOTOS

We'd love to post photos of our vacation, birthday celebration, and other occasions of ours, in fact that is what we do, but little do we know how much we  compromise our security. For instance a thief can monitor you from your vacation photos  and know you are not home.Don't post naked/half naked pics online, probably at the moment your intentions might be to grow more followers but you loose your dignity and pride, besides those who go on liking naked pics are WASTED individuals.

• STOP DOWNLOADING  MALICIOUS APPS

With android  being the most widely used operating system, many people keep looking for free apps and apps for the simplest to the toughest task."Bad" guys out there also take this opportunity to create apps that can harm us( our privacy).A February 2014 Intel report found that:

82% of apps were reading the device identification

64% knew who your carrier was

59% track you last known location

55% were continuously tracking your location

26% run the apps you use

26% knew your SIM card number

36% knew your account number for your account information

Be sure you know what the app is reading and, if it’s gaining access to too much information, don’t download it.Also it will be save to download apps from the Playstore, cause most non-playstore apps can easily temper with your security plus they annoying ads.

• NEVER USE WEAK OR THE SAME PASSWORD FOR MULTIPLE SITES.

Passwords used to be so easy. Your pet bunny was named “Pinky,” so that became your password. Nowadays, passwords look more like JaYW1x%BuUnZ#. Even if you could remember this gobbledygook, do you really want to dream up more than one password that looks like this?

Security is vital these days, and complex passwords are the way to go.

• DON'T SHARE TOO MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT YOURSELF.

Sharing a few cute photos is fine, but posting too much private information can be very dangerous. Luckily my parents don't do that: Suppose your 8-year-old daughter is outdoors playing with friends, and a stranger approaches and says, “Hi, Enanga. I work with your father, Ebot, at the dentist’s office. He just had an accident in his blue 2014 Honda Accord and he asked me to drive you to him at St. Vincent’s Hospital.”

Today, it’s easier than ever for predators to find your child’s name and your professional and personal data. Aggressive predators might even track down schedules for sporting events and after-school clubs. Don’t give them a chance to sound credible.

• NEVER GET INTO ARGUMENTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

We have all stumbled into a meme that makes us angry. Or someone sends us a forwarded message that sounds totally misinformed. Or some troll posts a series of vicious comments. My advice: Do not engage.

There’s nothing tackier than a social media argument. Even well-intended comments can sound snarky and mean-spirited. Friendships often fall apart after sparring on Facebook or Twitter. If you need to sort out your differences, it’s best to do this in person or over the phone. Most social media arguments end badly.
