 SIM swapping and port-out fraud can be fatal to your personal information. The FCC is looking for new rules to amend for the tightening security around your data and phones in order to prevent the sim swapping and port out frauds in which fraudsters can access the personal information and phone number for nefarious purposes. The agency revealed that it has received numerous complaints from the consumers and has suffered financial harm and significant distress due to this. Sim swapping is when someone hijacks your phone number to interfere with the two-factor authentication code(which you use to verify login access or account access).

Port-out fraud occurs when the fraudsters open an account with different cell phone carriers than the victims and has the victim's phone number transferred to the new account wi...

AI cameras allowing only smiling employees in office

Image
Canon China has installed AI smile recognition technique in its offices to detect whether the employees are happy or not.   Representational Image Canon is known for its experiment in imaging technology and products. This is also famous for producing futuristic devices. According to the reports Canon is using AI techniques to detect the happiness of employees. They have installed this in their China offices to identify employees with smiling faces and then only allowing them to enter. This is designed to ensure that the employees are 100% happy. This is not the sole reason. The Chinese companies have decided to keep track of their employees and we all are very well aware of China's surveillance system which keeps track of its residents on each and every move. Further, it is also known that the employees will be tracked for every movement they are making. This is the worst initiative or whatever I don't know what to say because it's simply an invader to someone's privacy...

After the release of iOS15, one question came to my mind that the features which we are experiencing currently after the release has been released by Google and Android away before. Now the question is what's new in it and why Apple Inc. do this? Well, Apple is known for its new innovations and bringing new revolutions but this time in the current situations if we saw nothing's new we could accept from Apple because as per the current situation whatever the features being released or being used have been experienced by the Android users and almost the people who use iPhone somewhere they also use Android as a secondary device so they are left with nothing exciting. But still, people get too amazed after the release. How? Let's make a deeper dive into it.

Well, no ne...

What if you could know the unknowns behind the screen?

 Everyone is quite curious in today's world about everything and wants to jump into the deepest of it possible but due to some restrictions or maybe it's not in their control so they limit themselves as the first layer of everything only. In the current era, data and privacy is the heatest topic across the globe. Everyone is concerned about it. Since we are going digital and needed to share our details with the companies one is always a bit scared about their data that might be misused and that's true somewhere. Almost more than half of the world's total population are right now using the internet and are present on several social media sites where they share their real info so that each one of them can be identified by their friends or knowns but what about if someone is using fake information and is trying to be someone else behind one end. Here our mind sparks that how would they be looking or who it would be in real. But we failed to recognize them and we either ign...
