Keeping your information private is nearly impossible these days. The Internet has turned us all into virtual blabbermouths oversharing everything. And what we aren’t already sharing with wild abandon is being harvested, parsed, analyzed, stored in endless databases, and sold by big Internet companies. Then that information is stolen by cyber-criminals and sold on the Dark Web.
The task of keeping our information private seems impossible, but there still are actions you can take to limit the about of information about you that is circulating in the Cloud. One of those tasks is to make sure you have appropriately set your security and privacy settings with the websites you use. Thanks to StaySafeOnline.org, we are able to provide this collections of links that will take you directly to the security setting page on these websites. Then you can make sure that your are getting as much security and privacy as you were hoping for.
