Each coin has two sides. It is extremely convenient to have e-mail, credit, discount cards, regular and mobile phones, and other digital devices that make life much easier.
But these same things greatly curtailed our independence. Especially - a mobile phone, which in itself is quite capable of working as a device that transmits conversations to someone interested. Accounts - both e-mail and social networks, are hacked with enviable regularity, funds are withdrawn from the cards, in the player, watch, headphones or e-book - in any item without exception - the so-called bug can be mounted.
This miniature device, despite the almost affectionate name - by analogy with an insect - can cause large losses. Bugs not only record conversations, but can take photos and video. Their miniature does not interfere with their high performance.
Since everyone can now buy them, there is never a guarantee that ill-wishers will not have the idea to publicize the information that a person considers his private secret. To protect yourself, you must buy anti-bug .
Goals can be not only immoral, but often mercenary and criminal. The loss of honor is worth a lot. The blackmailers are well aware of this, and since βeveryone has their own skeleton in the closet ...β This is especially dangerous if a person is either rich, or is engaged in a profitable business, or has a high status, or is a popular public figure.
Bug can be hidden in any electrical appliance and even in outlets: in this case, the bugs are eternal, because the power source is at their disposal. You should be attentive to unexpected gifts from strangers - a listening device may well give you: in any item!
Since the power of the bugs is different, care must be taken in the search, since the least powerful can transmit information even to a neighboring office, and it can be detected at a minimum distance, up to a dozen centimeters.
The most widespread use of bugs is observed in the business sector. And therefore, almost all firms have a security service on staff that is constantly searching for bugs - and their variety and miniature grows almost daily.
To detect bugs, anti-bugs have been created - of different capacities and capable of detecting bugs of any kind. These devices, the so-called detectors, bugs that emit any signals, are easily found: radio bugs, wireless video cameras, beacons, interceptors of cellular signals and so on.
But if the bugs are installed with a wired connection, the blockers will not be able to detect them.
A new generation of video camera detectors is triggered by the glare of the bug lens.
Equally dangerous are the familiar Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, which are used everywhere. True, these methods are not resorted to by private individuals, but by more serious structures, but there are also Wi-Fi and Bluetooth blockers.
If it was not possible to find the bugs, but suspicion that they were installed in this room, the equipment is turned on, which suppresses the operation of listening devices. The transmission of any signals is muffled, which makes the operation of video camera bugs also impossible. It is also possible noise reduction - the inclusion of loudly working devices - for example, a vacuum cleaner - or music.
