The Secret Formula to a Perfect Life
We’re taught to work and study hard since our childhood for a better tomorrow, but I feel that it’s the time for me at least, to stop and reflect how it works and if it’s the right way to live. People around the globe, most of them, think it’s worth their while to work hard today for wealthy years of retirement in distant future. But is the ability to have fun received in the age when one can’t barely walk by himself is worth it? These people usually end up losing joyful stuff to only realize that good times aren’t ever materialized. I suggest everyone, to aim for the “unrealistic” things like traveling the world which will set you apart from people thinking “realistically” and settling for mediocrity Plus, with most people aiming for the good stuff, the great stuff is available for a lot less fierce competition. Unlike people who spend living away from their dreams, taking safe roads of hard work with an illusion of joyful retirement. This has to stop because the perfect moment as per the people who are successful as well as happy to live your dreams is NOW. This fantasy-like life is nowadays more easily possible which only one thing that everyone needs; an automatic income: a source of money that can be managed effortlessly from anywhere on the planet with along an income that you can earn while sleeping. The best examples are people in Photography, writing, music, art business who can create their works anywhere and share using our super technology to anywhere with earning while the stuff is being sold everywhere even when they are in their sleep. Living a true life, from my experience is doing stuff that may seem unworthy but is Fun, because we only live once, having hard conversations which are Important because they’ll set you free and Disregarding conventions that others stick to because doing so will make you different. Which way of living are you gonna choose? What do you want me to write about? Tell me in the comments. Don’t forget to like, share & subscribe for more stuff like this.

Who’s watching you? | Discussion on Privacy, Track
The above title sounds like a common horror movie’s dialogue, but it has an important place in the world of the Internet. Just imagine that you are surfing the Internet on your PC, sitting on an Armchair, unaware of a dark shadow standing behind you. Watching all your activity, watching each word that you type; What will be your reaction? For me, I will just run away. But, when we look at your daily websites from a technical view, there are a lot of shadows hidden from your eyes that are watching all your activity, following you with your each click. Mainly, this whole process of tracking & following is used to gain information about the web user and change the internet of ads according to it. (Remember when you viewed an item on an E-commerce site and just after that every website you visit contain ads related to that product.) And this analysis of visitor behaviour is known as Website visitor tracking or WVT. Is it Useful or Harmful? It is useful for the economy as that analysis of the individual’s web activity can be used to provide that visitor with content related to his/her preferences and it could be either during or after a visit on the site. But somehow, the use of WVT technologies is controversial. As it also has an added danger of selling or theft of personal data along its usage by spammers and hackers. And according to internet rules and acts of various regions, if this thing is done without the knowledge of a user, it’s considered a breach of browser security. Not for sure something big, but you can do something against it, if it feels bad to you. Thinking to take an action? Before you make your way to the court or police station, make sure that you didn’t give them permission to track or watch you. (No, never! Why would I do that?) Actually, over 97% of you did. How? Did anyone of you ever read those Terms and Conditions before accepting them? Who has got time for that? Right? NO! If you did read those terms and conditions before signing up for your social network account or your email. If you will read them, you will find that you have given them proper permission to track you, follow you and also, to use the Cookies. Wait, What are the cookies? Right now, many of you are having this question in your mind. You have heard of this terms in a lot of web articles and also, from your Mom’s mouth. But these cookies doesn’t taste as good as your mother’s cookies. So, in actual, Cookies are the text bits that your browser download as you surf the web. And these carry some useful information about your interaction with the web. So, if you visit a website that you have visited before, your browser and the website as well, will know that you have been there before. And if you use a different computer, open a new web browser or delete your cookies, the will treat you as this is your first visit at that place. This helps in better and improved functioning of browser; They try to learn your preferences (They remember the volume of the video player that you used last time); they try to understand the users (You always see the top stories according to your interests in the newsfeed.) and with these small things they try to make user experience better. Do I need to worry? I will not say that you have to worry too much, but as I said above, if I was at your place, I will not stay tension free, at all. So, what can you do about that? I have already shared a lot of tips to for a more private browsing that you can read anytime, but if you still worry about your Cookies. Here are some tips to protect your cookies (You can use them in both, your real and virtual life): ## Eat them in a private place: You can do your daily searches in incognito mode or surf the whole web in an Anonymous mode. I mean, just do the work that needs privacy in a private manner. And if you want to do it in a simple way, just go incognito mode. (Using chrome? Press ctrl+shift+N) ## Keep you cookies in a Jar: You can use a privacy protection softwareor a simple browser extension to block all the trackers. And also, you can use your basic knowledge to save your cookies. In other words, delete your cookies at a regular interval and use the private mode whenever you can. ## Cookies are not for Sharing: Seriously, just like the passwords, don’t let anyone steal your cookies. Even if that person is your friend, never share your browser’s data with him. (This is 21st century and you can only trust that man in the mirror.) You never know what that person can use that information for, from cracking your passwords to hacking your private life. I hope that this article taught you something. And make sure you read those terms & conditions before accepting them.
How to hide on the web?
Are you aware of the fact that you only 4% of the Web is directly accessible and else is considered as “Dark or Deep Web” and the more important thing is that you can use that Deep web to browse the Internet hidden & free from all kind of trackers, hackers & advertisers. First of all, what is dark web? Dark web, also known as the deep web is that portion of the internet whose content is not indexed by standard search engines and website. How big is it? Some early estimates suggest that the deep web is 4,000 to 5,000 times larger than the normal web. It means dark web covers up to 96% of the internet. How does it remains hidden? Most of the content is intentionally hidden from the normal internet and is accessible only via special software. It contains some dynamic content which only response to a specified submitted query or accessed only through a form. It has the pages which are not linked to each other prevent Web programs (who are tended to access connected web page) from accessing the content. Some sites have password-protected resources. Some sites are limited to access their pages in only a technical way. How can you access it? The most common used way is the access through special software such as Tor. Some part of this web is also accessed by some custom hardware add-on(s) & proxy hacks that are used by only experts to access the deeper contents in Dark web. What are the uses of Deep Web? Many people use it for illegal or immoral purpose, but this thing can be very useful for private browsing. Even if your country doesn’t provide you Right to Privacy, you can use this to work privately. In heavily censored countries, use it to communicate and exchange information. And also to connect with the rest of the World. It prevents people from learning, tracking or using your location or personal data. We are eagerly waiting for your responses and views toward this. We will reply you as soon as possible.
India on the Internet|Reports & Studies
Today we are here to know about the India, the country of vast culture & languages. We will check its performance & influence over the Internet, along with some reports & studies to help us know better. Indian internet population- India has 45 million users on Facebook, 15 million on twitter and 45 million on LinkedIn from the total 125 million Internet users. (The amount is still growing.) And the 60% of social traffic comes from the non-metro cities of India. This shows us the wide range of Internet users in India and tells us that how important isInternet security for India, that Government should take seriously as a Big concern. Mobile users- With the growth of smartphones in today’s world, the number of Internet users is greatly affected. There are more than 92+ Million active social media users that access accounts using their cell phones. This emerges the need of Moblie safety & self-awareness about the Internet scams & scandals that are very popular & can be financially harmful in today’s digital dependent world. Kids on Social Networks- Do you know that on most of the social networking sites just allow people above 13 years of age to make an account? Yes, of course. But, according to a survey done by ASSOCHAM,about 73% of children from tier-I & II cities between age of 8 to 13 are using facebook and social networking sites. And this reveals a sad side of the Internet as in most cases, their elders/parents know about this & still they just don’t care. However, many of them repent as their kids became addict to it. And it has many other bad effects along that including CyberBullying, online threat & immoral development. And at the time of this survey’s release, the Secretary-General of the organisation, Mr. D S Rawat said, “children are gaining access to social media sites at a younger age, which could expose them to content, people or situations that are out of their depth.” So, what did he warned us about? If we check several other surveys, we will found that the majority of CyberBullying cases are about the children from the same age group (8 to 13). This tells us about how parents are leading children to a worse road of life. E-commerce- The Indian “online” advertising market has crossed Rs. 3000 cr. and the e-Commerce of India has crossed $24 billion (Rs 1,08,000 crores) which displays that increasing impact & influence of online market over the local markets, now the e-stores like Flipkart, Amazon, Snapdeal etc. are ruling the consumer’s world, this e-market of India was $2.5 billion in 2009, it went up to $6.3b in 2011 & to $14b in 2012 and is still increasing along with the time. And according to Google India, there were 35 million online shoppers in India in 2014 which is expected to cross 100 million by 2017. There is no other opinion that Indians has a very & great impact on the Internet & its population, but it still need a lot of improvement & development in its several sectors including awareness & security of the Web. You can share you views & suggest us something in the comments below, we are waiting eagerly. Thank you for reading.
