Hello friends, how are you all? Come on everyone is fine. I wish you all the best. Welcome to today's blog from TechPark. I hope you will be able to know and learn something new from my blog today. Let's start the discussion in detail.Changing pictures with the app, giving information to whom?
For a few days now, everyone on Facebook has been creating a profile or cover picture using an app. In the yellow-eyed picture, Facebook is now on Facebook.
Thinking you are lagging behind other friends if you don't try too? Not only this latest app, how old you look, what you know about yourself by your name, this app starts to stumble upon when it comes to hut. Your personal information is going through the hands of the owner of the app. This can put the user's life and account at risk.
According to the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) data for 2019, the number of mobile users in Bangladesh is 16 crore 25 lakh 73 thousand and about 9 crore subscribers use mobile internet. In other words, a large number of people in Bangladesh are voluntarily giving all their confidential information to various organizations just because of the use of the app.
The Cambridge Analytic a scandal is one of the biggest political scandals in recent times. According to BBC News, there were allegations against them, they collected information of 68 million people from Facebook. About 11 lakh of these accounts are UK based. Christopher Wylie, who leaked the scandal, said about 50 million people had been affected. Because of this, Mark Zuckerberg had to attend the congressional hearing in April 2016.
Arif Nizami works with Facebook Developer Group. Regarding the risk of using such apps, he said, this app is a third party app. Not Facebook or Google. They can use this information to sell to anyone. Remember that once you get the information, it is stored somewhere for a lifetime. If they don't sell to a party right now, they will do so five years later. He said that in most cases there is a rumor that these are given to the intelligence agencies but it has not been proved. Advising to be cautious in using such apps, he added that now face detection is important all over the world. It is used for surveillance of citizens. We are not aware of it at all. When an app allows you to receive your personal information, your account may be hacked if that app is ever hacked. The only way to stay away from these.
Aminul Hakim, president of the Internet Service Providers Association of Bangladesh, said the information that any app that focuses on such issues could be dangerous if it is not a "trusted app". Suppose mobile dialer app. They will want to use your mobile camera. You need to upload a picture. NID card must be sent. Maybe they are saving. There is nothing to be done if a naughty person uses it for a different purpose. It is easier for hackers to break your password when you have all the personal information of the user in your hands. Use a trusted app instead. Explaining what is meant by trusted app, he said, on which one can be trusted. Suppose the brand's product can be used safely, let's think about whether the rest are veggies. The same is true in the digital world. If you see an unnamed company, you should avoid it.
Mehdi Hasan Sumon of Research and Innovation at Multimedia Content and Communications Limited thinks that using these apps without knowing the terms and conditions disrupts the security of the individual. We don't even read that part. Let's follow one level after another. This leaves our personal information. As a result, the user does not even know how much danger he may be in. And it is important to manage this information at the same time. That is why it is repeatedly said to teach internet. Apart from this, we are always giving information to someone or someone. If not, how do you get the ads you need on Facebook? It is very difficult to keep information safe at this time.
Nazmul Islam, Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC) of the Cyber Security and Transnational Crime Division, also said keeping information safe was a big challenge and a difficult task. He told the Bengali Tribune that many apps do the job of collecting and storing information on purpose. Usually users stumble upon seeing all this. What is good or bad is not always visible to the naked eye. So it is better to refrain.
