Privacy is Intimate

"He, (Trevor Forrest-Ministry of Science, Energy, and Technology), pointed out that many people, in using cyberspace, do not think about security, only about the convenience."  A quote by Tomecia Gunn in an article she wrote in the Jamaica Information News, explains how everyone is at risk for cyber crime.  Listening to Ms. Chisolm's story brought anger to my heart.  The selfishness and greed that an individual can obtain and the ability to send that backlash in creating turmoil within someone's life is just wrong.  This one story needs to be heard.  This story needs to be broadcasted around the world, and in and out of the United States of America.  

We are so dense to the idea that we can be attacked through our vulnerable and ill-protected lives in the international waves of the internet.  Things need to start changing, in order for us to truly "MAGA."  

The privacy that is spoken about within all of the TedTalks need to start raising questions.  This sent the sole job of the government, and we need to step up to the plate when it comes to protecting ourselves.  

Reading articles about the cretinous actions we don't take every year as a country is disconcerted   In an article written from the Insurance Information Institute, we can read that amongst only five large corporations, in the span of less than four months amount to almost 700millions records exposed to the public, that included sensitive information.  Equifax alone, in 2017, had one of the worst ever information breaches in the history of cyber crime that exposed almost 145 million people's sensitive information, such as their social security numbers.

As a country, we need to button up, and fix these issues.  We need to call out the people in charge when things like this happen, because only God knows if their apart of it.  We are citizens of one of the most free country's in the entire world.  Let's start acting like it.
