Thanks for the info...i wont support anything that steals my data
its a very tricky area unless you decide to use a damp phone. (akina mulika mwizi)
anything that has access to the internet is open to data theft.
all apps from Youtube, Facebook, Google-maps..... steal information from the phones and others we freely give.
what's happening now is just wars between countries and also the major players trying to protect their data mining territory/avenue. (reduce the players/thieves)
hope so.
well see if i will try it

NSA warns of security threats from mobile location data
By Maggie Miller - 08/04/20 03:31 PM EDT 36
The National Security Agency (NSA) on Tuesday rolled out guidance warning that location data from mobile and other internet-connected devices could pose a security threat for users if it were accessed by adversaries.
The guidance was rolled out as a warning for Defense Department personnel and others with access to sensitive federal systems, but the NSA noted that it could be “useful to a wide range of users.”
“Using a mobile device—even powering it on—exposes location data,” the NSA warned in the guidance. “Mobile devices inherently trust cellular networks and providers, and the cellular provider receives real-time location information for a mobile device every time it connects to the network.”
“This means a provider can track users across a wide area,” the agency noted. “In some scenarios, such as 911 calls, this capability saves lives, whereas for personnel with location sensitivities, it may incur risks. If an adversary can influence or control the provider in some way, this location data may be compromised.”
The NSA noted that location data could be tracked even if the GPS and cellular data are switched off, warning that a mobile device can track location through WiFi and Bluetooth connections, while websites and apps can also access or guess the location of the user.
The agency warned that other internet-connected devices — such as fitness trackers, smart watches, medical devices and household smart devices — could also pose a security threat through their potential to collect and expose sensitive location data of any mobile device they are hooked up to.
Apps and social media accounts posed another risk for exposing sensitive location data, particularly for Defense Department personnel, the NSA warned, with pictures posted to social media platforms potentially including hidden metadata revealing locations.
“Anything that sends and receives wireless signals has location risks similar to mobile devices,” the NSA wrote

tufanyeje sasa...
option is to either
tumia cimu haina internet ama si smartphone.
itikia tu information yako itakua available kwa tech guru yeyote.
but dont forget we freely give out our information so most likey they already have all the necessary information they want.
mi nilichoka ku keep tabs na ni apps gani dangerous. sahi natumia smartphone na kuinstall apps zote zina nifurahisha na kuwatcha WI-FI na Find my location on 24/7.

Earlier this year kuna tech guru flani alikua ananisaidia kuinstall OS mpya remotely,the dude juzi ananitumia pics zangu za 2015 bana nikachoka...kumbe the guy accessed my gmail account...luckily passwords ziko kwa gmail ingine...
sahi ukitaka kua safe ni nunua desktop ama laptop ama smartphone ama external harddrive, save kila kitu but ensure hutawahi zi connect kwa internet.
sahi tech guru yeyote ana weza access kitu yeyote iko na internet.
pia usisahau mtu yeyote anaweza learn kuhack kutoka kwa net. youtube kuna tutorials za kufanya kitu yeyote ciku hizi.
pia kama uko na internet acces poa, unaeza kua unaingi youtube una tafuta tutorials za kuinstall OS ama kufix issues yeyote ya comp ama phone.
pahali utashindwa, tafuta expert.
Thanks.
