Proving that spying on computers is a physical reality, pretty easy one too.

RE: Proving that spying on computers is a physical reality, pretty easy one too.
There are many ways to spy out there and I appreciate you raising awareness. The same spy apps that paranoid parents use to track their children's activities on their mobile phone can be used by criminals, such as stalkers and domestic abusers. It is troubling how easy it is to track somebody. If anybody gave me a mobile phone as a gift I'd perform a factory reset ASAP. Did you know that traffic data on Google Maps and others is collected using mobile phones? Mobile phone companies can find your position easily.



I advise everyone reading this comment to download Ghostery so that they can see just how much they are being tracked on some websites, if they haven't already. Ghostery lists all of the trackers on the webpage you're viewing and gives users the option to block individual trackers or all of them at once. I also advise people to erase Cookies when they close their web browser.
