Computer Hacking

  1. This is pretty scary stuff. I guess you have to rely on your virus protection software for more than just viruses. Gregory Evans mentions illegal spyware, which infers that there is legal spyware, so I wonder…is our government and law enforcement abusing our rights to privacy with such spyware. It really does give the impression that “Big Brother” is watching.

  2. Very informative. I'm so glad that technology has found very good jobs for old computer hackers. This goes to show you how easy it is for anyone to get all of your personal information. No matter how safe you think your information is on the computer someone is always one step ahead of you.

  3. Wow, this is crazy. The things people do to get what they want. Seeing this makes me think twice about putting my credit card information online for purchases. This video gave a lot of good, useful information. I try not to open any emails from people and companies I do not know, but sometimes I get curious and look. I won't do that after watching this video. Just by sending a personal email someone can get all of your personal information. One reason why they say you shouldn't fill out the forward a friend sends to you asking personal questions. You give out a lot of information about yourself that other people shouldn't have. This video is scary.

  4. This is extremely good to know. I am always so afraid of this happening, people getting ahold of your personal information and credit cards and stuff. It's a scary world out there, everyone just needs to be careful and we will be fine.

  5. This is why no one should open e-mails from people they do not know. Most regular people will not have to worry about the extremes that the host showed us. People are continuing to find better and better ways of hiding things. I would never have expected that the pen and watch were used that way. As always, protect yourself with anti-spyware software.

  7. Good to know that someone is finding jobs for computer hackers. I've had several computers become corrupted with viruses and spyware. Thankfully, some computers (like the Compaq Presario PC I currently own) have increased their security features, too.

  8. It seems like we are all victims just waiting to be preyed upon. For every defense mechanism that someone invents someone else is trying to invent a way to beat the system. It's a scary world that we live in.

  9. This was extremely informative, I almost didn't watch it but I am so happy that I did. I was always scared to buy stuff online because I don't like putting my credit card information in the computer, this made me want to do it even less! Some people are just so crazy.

  12. This is really scary. I am always so afraid of someone hacking into my computer and stealing my information. I am glad that there are programs out there that are trying very hard to control hackers. Even with those programs I still get scared. It is pretty crazy the world we live in. It is sad that some of us have to live in a constant fear of people stealing our information whether is from the computer or the mail. What is this world coming to.

  14. Computer hacking is becoming a bigger issue each day. I know a few people who had their information stolen from hackers, and it took months for them to finally get their money back.

  15. This was the ebst post you guys had so far man! It was amazing seeing how much that guy could steal off of anyones computer without us even knowing. It is a good way to see it through a different perspective, the perspective of the hacker. And the USB watch was an extra benefit. I cant believe he pulled out that crazy gadget. WHERE THE H*** DID HE GET THAT AT? i want one, how much are they?
