Well hacking and internet scams etc. are something for everyone to be concerned about.

So the benefits of modern computer and information technology - things like the internet and AI - have come with such privacy issues like hacking and government surveillance of what people do on the internet, as well as the aforementioned scamming over the internet.

For example, the internet has allowed such things as electric scooters in cities to be easily hired by phone which means people can use them without private ownership. So theoretically less scooters need to be built and the environment is saved. But if you want to hire them you need your phone and phone locations can be traced.

By the way, have you read the article in question or just the Wikipedia words?

Hi pibroch,

I strongly dislike this lack of privacy. I do not have my location on my phone and keep seeing a message that apple needs my location.
So far I have resisted. We also regularly withdraw cash from the bank. I have nothing to hide, but it makes my rebellious hair stand on end lol.
No I haven’t read anything else yet.
