Speaker:
Hi, this is Bill Sikkens, host of User
Friendly 2.0.
2
:
Saturday's here on the answer
with this week's Tech Wednesday.
3
:
We've been talking on the show lately
about patents and other technologies
4
:
that are designed to spy on you
and sell your data.
5
:
And this has, of course, brought up a lot
of questions this week on User Friendly.
6
:
We are going to be answering
your questions
7
:
and looking at some common-sense ways
that you can alleviate being tracked,
8
:
not prevent it.
9
:
I don't know if that's entirely possible,
but certainly some things that are non
10
:
paranoid steps that you can do to minimize
some of these activities.
11
:
A lot of our questions
have been coming in so far.
12
:
Focus on different aspects of things
from televisions that monitor
13
:
what you're watching, the cars that listen
to what you're saying to smart speakers,
14
:
and a lot of the other technologies
that are out there.
15
:
I often say technology is benign.
16
:
It's what you do with it that counts.
17
:
And in these cases,
18
:
some of the directions
that these things are starting to
19
:
go is getting a little bit scary.
20
:
But there are things you can do.
21
:
Join us Saturday here on The Answer
as we deep dive into how to minimize
22
:
those that are tracking you.
