Predators Around Us

Hackers, people who use computers to get into unauthorized areas, is increasing every day in our lives. Hackers are becoming a major problem for us. In Cincinnati,OH, Emma, daughter of  Heather Schreck was hacked through a baby monitor around midnight by a man's voice. Heather Schreck heard a voice in her daughters room, she checked the monitor with her cellphone and the camera was moving, but Heather wasn't the one moving it, it was someone outside their house, a hacker. It is very scary, knowing there is someone unknown watching us from the outside. We relied on technology for our young one's protection but in this matter technology is endangering our young one's into the strangers hands. We wont have that protection for the young one's if we do not do something about these predators.One thing we do need to do is be more cautious in the young one's technology making sure it wont be hacked because it isn't safe anymore and we need to care for their protection.

With the articles above, technology is helping predators through social networks and cameras. Technology wont be reliable for kids until there is a solution to block predators from danger.
