    I am afraid that hackers are ( and will be ) always stronger than simple honest citizen like me!

      I have always considered anything sent over wires or through air, public knowledge. There is no way to control where this stuff goes once it leaves your locale.

        Now I know why Pelosi, and all the others are crying about the wire tapping, just like the NY gov, they are affraid of getting caught...as they too are all crooks, and we might just catch some more with our wire taps..

        In the mean time, we just should not re elect any of them. I would imagine they have filched enough for the reat of thier lives...seems as our pols are just as crooked as the mex ones..

          Only if very top level encryption is used is anything safe on the internet. Lower level encryption is cracked easily. This is a fact of life on the internet. This has been said by the experts over and over. Everybody seems to ignore this.

          Live by the rule:

          Don't put anything in email or any other method of using the internet that you don't want the whole world to know.

            People might want to go one better. Don't put any information on a computer that you don't want others to see. It may be impossible for a business to run that way, but not impossible for a normal home user. If you do online banking, use the software manually for synchronizing your bank balances, instead of downloading which requires a stored bank account number and password.

            No matter how secure you can make your internet connection, there will always be a way around it. Your personal info may always be accessible on the hard drive, as well. The only way to insure that it is never recovered is to destroy the platters in the hard drive. There are software programs to overwrite any data on the drive but destroying the drive is the only sure way.
