While surfing the Internet browsers keep tracks of our Internet activity in order to provide a more pleasant computer and surfing experience. But these history tracks can compromise our privacy and provide an easy way for others to see what web sites you visited, what you have been searching, downloading, viewing, etc.
Windows and different applications we use keep tracks about your computer activity in order to provide a more pleasant computer experience. But those history tracks can also compromise our privacy and show what you have been doing, searching, downloading, running, saving, what documents and files you have just opened etc.
So while there are lots of things that we have gained from the computer revolution there is a price we have to pay. And the price is our computer privacy. Of course there is no simple solution for this problem. But inactivity is also impossible. There are some simple steps everyone could do. There are different tools available to help us maintain our privacy - anonymous surfing tools, encryption software, clear history software. When your PC is equipped with privacy software, it has the greatest chance of surviving privacy or security attacks.
