Photos from open sources The other day, scientists at Cambridge University published sensational report that they determined during the study: not despite all the thorough cleaning of the smartphone before selling it, it still retains the old information.
And this despite the fact that only in the United States annually about seven hundred million used gadgets are sold. And how much worldwide? And after all, a person selling his mobile device, I am sure that he erased everything from him! Naive conviction, as it turned out, so cybersecurity experts from, say, a Norwegian company Thorsheim offer in this case a radical method – just take and use a hammer to destroy the smartphone you don’t need …
But if you watch the documentary “The Last War” series “Secrets of the world with Anna Chapman”, you will be surprised to find that a smartphone is not worth buying at all – neither new, nor old, since it is through him that the surveillance of modern man. It turns out all the data that you transfer through your gadget, including those related to your banking accounts become the property of special services and hackers. Not by chance all multimillionaires of the world do not use mobile devices.

As, however, and plastic cards. If you ever paid with such a card on the Internet, know that its the number and pincode is already in the hackers database, and your bank the account may disappear at any time, especially if it appears on it a substantial amount. Under the same scheme, you may be at any time a loan is issued, some large debts are hanged, and much more. AND all because manufacturers of hard drives, mobile devices, all kinds of programs in advance (at the manufacturing stage) integrate bugs into all this equipment and software, then collecting information about users. That is, we buy already “infected” electronic goods. And in vain the layman believes allegations of the same bank employees about triple or some still superprotect cash deposits. As experts say in this areas, everything created to protect data by one person, another can be easily hacked. It is also natural as that our sun not only rises, but also sets.
No coincidence Anna Chaplan in her new documentary asks a rhetorical question how this humanity is so fast (for some past twenty years) stuck in electronic bondage? After all disconnect today all computers, mobile devices and so on it will not work out anymore – the world will collapse. Moreover, already invented artificial intelligence that passed the test last year Turing (intelligent intelligence – the invention of St. Petersburg programmers Veselov and Demchenko).
And therefore, finally, about the main thing: Alan Turing, the ancestor computers and the world’s first professional hacker, back in 1950 said that as soon as the electronic machine passes his test, the world will begin to slide to the matrix, and mankind will soon wait for a third and, most likely, the last world war for this civilization. You can, of course, dismiss this terrible prophecy, but the facts, the same research on used smartphones suggests that the great mathematician was very perspicacious in the field of computer technology …
