attempt.
Smartphone Hacking
It would take an amateur hacker less than 20
hours to hack into your smartphone.
A professional hacker would only need under 4

hours, to steal all of your information without you
even knowing.
MacDonald, Claire. Smartphone Users Unaware

of Hacking Risks. Digital image.
Applications
Most apps once they are downloaded share the phones unique ID number,
the phones location, and the users age and gender.
Track the exact location of the cell phone user at any given time.
Remotely send SMS commands to lock/unlock the cell phone usage or delete
call history, photos and videos from the target phone at any time.
Easiest smartphone to hack:

CNET an electronic consumer, did a study which revealed that android
phones are easier to hack into than apple phones using an IOS system.
When comparing the two phones, the only way to break into an IPhone
was if it was jail broken.
However, to hack into an android all you would need is to be linked to
the phone through Wi-Fi or Blue-tooth.
Privacy from Cellphone Providers

Service providers like AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, and T-Mobile collect phone
data, but don't tell you exactly what data they collect, the reasons they
collect it, and their data retention policies.
The information that they collect are all calls made, the numbers that you
receive calls from, emails sent, bill copies and much more.
Government
Law enforcement can tap into the locations of
smartphones, and ask wireless providers to turn over
days worth of location data, and implant tracking
devices.
They can also request all the data your smartphone

provider has collected about you.

Forget To Watch out for Apps. Digital image.
How to: Prevent Hacking

Dont automatically connect to any available Wi-Fi connections.
Turn off Bluetooth when around places like Hotels, Malls and restaurants
Dont store information on your phone like pins, social security numbers, and
bank information
Dont automatically remember login passwords for access to email, and other
accounts.

Rumored Health Hazards

Brain dysfunction
Brain tumors
Sleep disorders
Attention Deficit Disorder
Interference with cardiac pacemakers
Effects of Cell Phone use

Cell phones emit low radiofrequency (RF) energy levels
These levels are safe and undetectable
Prolonged exposure is the real concern
High RF levels emit excess heat
This leads to increased body/tissue temperature
Eyes are especially vulnerable to RF energy due to low blood flow.
How to reduce RF exposure

Hands-free kit like a Bluetooth set or headphones
Utilize speaker mode often
Limit time spent using your smartphone
Societys overdependence
