How do we protect our family in a world where privacy seems to be declining?
FAMILY PASSWORD
This is something we've had in our family for a couple of decades. Create a secret password that each member of your family can remember.
If that password is ever used in what seems like ordinary conversation, it means: "I'm in trouble. Call 911. Send help."
If you receive a late night phone call from one of your kids: "Help. I've been arrested. Wire $5000.00 for an attorney to SOME WEBSITE." If the call is really from one of your kids, he would say the password to verify it's really your child.
WHY IS ALL THIS IMPORTANT?
Because we live in a world where people put their real birthdates and private information on social media. They have their phones set so they can take calls from social media followers.
They post pictures and videos of spouses, siblings, children, and grandchildren. They log their daily movements and restaurants they frequent, vacations they take, and so much more.
TAKEAWAY TRUTH
All of the above is fodder for scammers and crooks who can take those images and information and use Artificial Intellience to take advantage of you.
