Sometimes it pays to take a bike to a downtown meeting once in a while. This is what I captured on the way home. . . *** #seattlewa #seattlefireboat #nauticallife #ebike #seattlesunset #paintedskies #leschi #seattlefire #onthewater #pugetsound (at Seattle Waterfront) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWrAC8ghtA-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Have you or someone you know had your account hacked? 😮Virus protection/security company, McAfee, says 22 percent of Internet users have been hacked at least once & 14 percent have been hacked more than once. I’m in the 14%. 🙀 My Facebook account was hacked 🕶️and I found out through friends who could tell by the stuff being posted on my feed that it wasn’t me. 🗣️ It’s a freaky sensation. Friends on IG have had their accounts hacked or impersonated. 👯 It’s hard to understand how it happens, like, why do people do this!? ⁉️ With impersonators, new accounts look identical in every way usually with a small modification to a username. 👬 If we see their avatar among new followers we might not notice and follow again. A couple of friends have had to start over on IG ▶️ which seems like a pretty depressing prospect. 🕵There are tons of articles that will tell you how to get your account back but I’m not sure they work, because if they did, people wouldn’t have to start over! The research takeaway is to protect your account to prevent it from happening in the first place. 🔐 Probably most of us are being careful by doing stuff like: --Use a strong password that is unique to every site 🔒 --Don’t share your password 🤫 --Use two-factor authentication (2FA) when it’s available 2️⃣ --Close accounts you don’t use 🗑️ --Use a separate email for your social media accounts 📧 Two other protective measures include: --Don’t allow tagging, and 🤳 --Make your account private ⛔ I won’t incorporate the last two measures, but the others are sensible things to do to help prevent losing an account. Have you or someone you know had an account hijacked? Was it resolved? . . . For those who expressed interest, @anewyorkkiss and I started a Clubhouse instead of trying to do a one-off room. 👋Upcoming on “Instagram Hubhouse” — Monday, March 15 at 5 PM/PT —Topic: “WHEN CATFISH BITE: 🎣 Have you or a friend ever been catfished on IG?” 🐟 If you’re on Clubhouse, it would be cool to have you there. 👍 . . #seattleviews #seattlesunset #becareful #beproactive #securitytips #security #hackingorsecurity #protectyourself #clubhouse #clubhouseapp #Instagramhubhouse (at Jose Rizal Bridge) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMWfITWsjes/?igshid=13yxgv25v6ji3
