Off the Radar Screen

Welcome to a new world of electronic security risk.

Now before you start making a stylish aluminum foil cap for your head, consider the many ways in which you are connected to the electronic world.

Most all of us use items such as cell phones, blue tooth, lap tops and home computers. We connect the Internet almost every day and some people, (like me) are connected for more hours, than care to admit. We spend our most critical personal and business data across the net without a second thought. Our security software programs are overrun by hacks and attempts to gain our life information and some if no all of our wealth.

There are many individuals (some say 1 in 100 people) out there making big money from on-line scams. They work by creating lost leaders and sleeper aps which attempt to get to our data. They forward our data to a recipient or use it themselves. Little applications we download that appear harmless, yet contain Trojan horses that send back data to host data collectors. From what we buy, to our most secret information, we all are open to penetration and loss of wealth. If it is on your computer and your computer is connected to the Net, it is vulnerable. If you have a credit card or a reside on a database, you're vulnerable.

On top of the thousands of viscous agents who put spiders on the Net, Uncle Sam is monitoring everything you email, blog, send on-line and say through your cell phone conversations. We are wired in and it needs to stop.

It's time to get off the grid and go below the radar screen. 

The only question I have is the remote receiver on the TV really a camera and mic.

Seriously, The technology to process digital and analog using the power grid already exists. I used to own a stereo which sent the sound signal through the power lines to the speakers.
