Can you really protect your privacy?

How safe is your personal information?  Think about it. Is it really possible to protect your information? Protecting your personal information in places such as your personal computer, banks, on your job and even your smart phone can be quite difficult with the growth of the internet, social networks, phone apps and automated office systems. Hackers are getting better every day.  I really don’t understand why hacking is not illegal. My personal computer is my personal property and the information on it is mine.  When someone gains access to your personal information through your personal property without your permission or knowledge and sell it, isn’t that stealing or trespassing?

We all use the internet, apps, and social networks for different reasons.  Before you put too much information on the internet, or in that text message remember the eyes it’s intended for, might not be the only eyes that see it.
