The Broken Condom

Various important sectors that service our public daily use the innovations of computers and the internet to store, transfer, and compile raw data. Information traveling across the internet does not really have to worry about worldly problem such as an accident, speeding tickets, or a broken condom, in fact the faster it travels across to the receiver the better. With this in mind, how safe is our personal information such as bank account number or passwords?

It has prevailed to be extremely convenient to use the internet to purchase products online, and do a little banking; however with the rise of hackers over the years how safe are we?

It reads on the back of a condom packet that it will not act as a 100% contraceptive, in this regard how much do you trust keying in your credit card number and pin onto an online account to purchase pornography or a teddy bear? The internet maybe such a wonderful place, however just like reality all things must come to and end.

Hackers = Criminals

I always had this image of hackers as, overweight, mid 30’s, jobless, however very intelligent people who are angry with the world and have an awful amount of free time on their hands. “An idle mind is the devils work shop”

As human beings we tend to find interesting yet odd ways to amuse out selves during the little intermissions in our life which I like to call BUMMING TIME. Within these periods we figure out ways to either enjoy our life or simply make the life of other beings a living hell.

Hackers exist for various reasons; however no good can come about hacking into another person’s life. Nothing is safe regardless of it being in reality or virtual reality the both lives that many of us lead is constantly under surveillance.
