Document Summary
Technology and the digital world is constantly developing; even over the duration of the past 10 years, technology on earth has taken a huge leap into the future. Along with this vast technological development, there are also a number of concerns that could also arise such as hacking, security breaches, virus", malware, and other forms of technological harm. One instance where i felt that my personal privacy was compromised occurred last summer. The virus and malicious software even hacked into my webcam and took a picture of me and displayed it on the message making it even more believable. Following seeing this message, i got scared and worried, so i quickly covered my webcam with paper and tape and then i unplugged the computer. Hoping that it would work, i started up the computer again and got the same message on the startup menu.
