Often installed secretly on mobile phones by jealous spouses, ex-partners and even concerned parents, this type of spyware can track the physical location of the victim, intercept their emails and texts, eavesdrop on their phone calls and record conversations, and access personal data, such as photos and videos. The primary goal of spyware is usually to obtain credit card numbers, banking information and passwords.īut spyware can also be used to track a person's location, as is the case with stalkerware. Once installed, it monitors internet activity, tracks login credentials and spies on sensitive information. Spyware is one of the most common threats to internet users.
Spyware is controversial because, even when it is installed for relatively innocuous reasons, it can violate the end user's privacy and has the potential to be abused. It invades the device, steals sensitive information and internet usage data, and relays it to advertisers, data firms or external users.Īny software can be classified as spyware if it is downloaded without the user's authorization. Spyware is a type of malicious software - or malware - that is installed on a computing device without the end user's knowledge.
dropbox should replace their search engine with google’s engine, i think. google had a feature to index files - i don’t know if they do support that - by installing the google search engine in your computer so you’re not exposing your private files to the world. the issue for me is remembering the keywords a year later when it’s time to search. you could consider using the dropbox searchable comments/tags to store more keywords. i try to pack essential “keywords” into the filename, but usually that’s not enough.
you’d have to page thru the document (what a pain for a long document!), and images might lose crispness, but if it saves time overall, it might be worthwhile.įinding the right document, especially if you have lots of them in a small number of folders, is a challenging issue for me. so open the document on a computer/tablet, zoom to the largest size, and use your phone to snap the picture into your app. I have not tried the OCR features, but if it turns it to work for your situation, you can snap pictures of your image-based document (already in dropbox) by displaying it on a second screen.
