THE DANGER OF PUTTING PASSWORD ON YOUR PHONE



Today, technology and modernization have made it in such a way that everyone wants his/her privacy. The word "trust" is even questionable and no more trusted by people. There is a password on almost everything from phone to everything we can, just to protect our information and keep our privacy. But what sense does it make when keeping a password on our phone send us or another to the grave instead of saving life? What then are we "securing"?

Three friends had an accident in a car and became unconscious. A stranger got to the scene and wanted to call for help. He had no phone. There were six mobile phones in the accident car but all had a password on them. They all died as a result.

A pregnant lady collapsed at home with her little daughter (a minor). The little girl had no idea of what was happening but saw her mother gasping for air. She picked her mother's phone to call her daddy but there was a password on the phone. By grace, her big brother left his phone on his bed while going to school and she called the father and her mother was saved because her brother had no password on his phone else the pregnant woman would have lost her life. Whose fault would that have been?

An armed men came to rob a family. The second child happen to be in a little room which the armed men thought it was a storeroom and never entered.  He had no phone but his sister's phone was on charge in his room. He tried to call for help but there was a password on his sister's phone. They raped and killed them leaving only the little one. He saw everything through the keyhole. Police station and military barracks were closer. He knew numbers he could call for help but "password" was on the sister's phone.

A young man died with so much wealth in an unknown bank. The information was on his phone. No one could access the information because there is a password on the phone.

My advice is this. You are too precious than the information you are securing on your phone. Only put password on your WhatsApp, text messages, Facebook, files, etc. and leave the call side free. You may one day save your life or the life of your loved ones.  The password on your phone can be your death warrant. Think twice.
