Weekly Community Check-In #129 - The truth about the Internet

[mittal-parth]

Hi everybody! 👏

We all at Public Lab 🎈 - learn, grow, work, brainstorm ideas, contribute together so why not share about our weekly goals and the awesome work we have done at Public Lab with each other, so we can support and collaborate with each other better. We have a Community Check-In each week, where every community member can share something about their work from the past week and about their current week's goal 🎯 . You are also welcome to share fun-fact 😄 , new ideas 💡 , your learning goals ☑️.

We believe in collaborative efforts to support our community. We are running a learning platform which helps a newcomer to become a leader of tomorrow. 💯

The truth about the Internet

I recently heard this podcast that featured a top ethical hacker speaking about cyber safety, cyber warfare, the dark web and most importantly how we can keep ourselves safe. One of the key takeaways from that conversation was the primary way to safeguard ourselves is a change in mindset while using the internet - assume that everything is already hacked. The moment you do that, there is a shift in how you carry out any activities on the internet.
Another highlight that caught my attention was that enabling Two-Factor Authentication makes you 90% more secure!
The link to the podcast is here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6TXHQc2WFaUTkrpSvcNVia and I would recommend everyone to listen to this!

I would also love to hear about any tips, articles, podcasts or anything that you would like to share regarding this! ✨
