What is SIM card exchange fraud and how to stay safe

Today, mobile numbers are connected to almost everything. Driver’s license, Aadhar, digital accounts and even bank accounts. This is the most convenient way to communicate, as they are always in the hands of the consumer, and they can respond to any message sent. But it also means that fraud can easily occur when a number is associated with everything. This is why the banking system has created several security settings such as OTP, 3D verification, etc. to ensure that this is not easy, if not impossible. Today we are talking about such fraud – SIM Swap Fraud and how to protect yourself. read more

Configure the Firefox Quantum browser to disable telemetry and data collection

In our previous contribution to managing the telemetry and data collection settings of Windows 10, we saw how to configure and disable Windows 10 telemetry and data collection for the entire system or for individual components on Windows 10. The same is true for Firefox, but the procedure is slightly different. Firefox Quantum, which claims to be more than twice as fast as its previous iterations, allows you to disable telemetry and data acquisition .

Disable telemetry and data collection in Firefox Quantum

The browser comes with some changes and privacy enhancements that you can access from the Settings page and that are configured so that the browser can control the type of data it shares with Mozilla and sends to Mozilla servers.

Start Firefox Quantum, select’Menu’ (3 items) and select Options. Then go to the’Privacy and Security’ section on the’Settings’ page. Here you can specify that Firefox can send technical data and interaction data, among other things. But even after setting these options, Firefox continues to collect and send data to the servers.

To completely disable telemetry and data capture in Mozilla Firefox Quantum, do the following

Type ‘about : config’ in the address bar and press Enter. If you are asked for a warning message, ignore it and continue. Click I accept the risk!

Enter telemetry in the search filter field and search the result :

How to prevent Google ads from tracking you on the Internet

We know that online ads follow us everywhere on the Internet. You simply type something into your search engine tab or visit any website, and online advertisers will start displaying relevant ads anywhere on the Internet, whether in your social media, email inbox or otherwise. The same applies to Google Adsense ads . This is technically called behavioural advertising or interest-based advertising. Google shows you ads according to your interests and your behavior on the Internet. For example, if you like a Facebook page for a specific brand, Google will show you ads for that brand everywhere. read more

Google Docs vs Microsoft Word Online: Which is better?

rk will be done.

Therefore, please use the user-friendly interface of Google Docs unless you need more features.

Features

Microsoft Word Online works well with all browsers, and we found no favor granted to Edge. Even if you use it in Chrome, there is an Office extension that allows you to access documents in your OneDrive account without having to log in each time. This makes the entire document creation and processing process much more productive.

To cope with an overloaded interface, Microsoft has introduced a new ‘Smart Lookup‘ feature in its online application. A right click on a word displays a series of options, from which several actions can be performed. read more
