Information leaks

These days, everyone is talking about how to secure his/her personal data, regardless of the place, whether they are stored in your home, office, mobile phone, tablet computer or even the "cloud"
They want a more secure gmail, a https enabled Facebook or even an encrypted harddisk. Nevertheless, please have a second thought, are you give other people with information at no cost?
Think about your Facebook page, are you telling everyone your family members, your job or even the last unpleasant experience with the local bank? These things could be a treasure for the identity thefts. So everyone needs to stay alert and don't make dumb things.
