If we used to have to use computers to surf the Internet, now almost everyone has a smart phone, surfing the Internet has been integrated into our daily life. In today's society, mobile phones are not only used for social networking, but also for entertainment, such as reading novels, playing games, and writing short videos through mobile phones
In addition to the above ways of recreation, some people like to use their mobile phones or computers to browse pornographic websites.
Maybe many of us accidentally entered or deliberately searched pornographic websites, and after browsing, most of us would choose to delete their browsing records immediately. Because the browser's history records which websites the owners who have used this browser have seen. If the mobile phone is accidentally taken by a familiar person, and the other person accidentally sees your browsing record, and looks at you meaningfully, it feels like the scene of social death.
Therefore, it is necessary to delete the browsing records, at least to prevent people around you from discovering their own little secrets.
However, it is impossible to completely eliminate the fact that you have entered pornographic websites by deleting your browsing records.
Because the history you deleted is only invisible on the browser, the eyes behind the browser have already recorded all the information. So it's no secret to browse pornographic websites.
In fact, when you open the browser, your every move is monitored, whether it is the keywords entered or the search URL, will be recorded by the browser.
We can also feel that our habits and preferences have been recorded on the Internet, such as some input method software. As long as we use mobile phones, we inevitably need to use input methods. We tap on the keyboard, and the input method records our common words during this period. When we type again, Maybe we just input a letter, but the input method will pop up the word you often use.
There are also some shopping software. We can enter the products we want to buy in the search bar, and when we return to the homepage recommendation, it will recommend you a series of such products, and even peripheral products or combinations related to this product.
When we return to the browser, even if we delete the browsing records of the pages we have visited before, the pages we have entered will be displayed in the front row when we search such pages again. This is also our preference recorded by the browser.
So, who are these people who record information?
In fact, the reason why these software are so considerate is that the administrator behind them has monitored our "preferences"!
All our information and actions on the Internet are under the eyes of network administrators.
In other words, not only the web browsing records, but also the account and password are clearly displayed on the interface of the network administrator.
The network administrator is mainly responsible for maintaining network security, so if you click an unsafe web page, your mobile phone interface and the computer interface will display an security prompt, telling you that the web page is at risk, and asking whether you are prohibited from accessing it. This website will also be recorded by the network administrator.
Some people say that network administrators need to read so much information every day, how can they care about me? Even if we know, we don't know each other.
However, our information on the Internet is not only visible to network administrators.
Some websites, especially pornographic websites, can capture users' information through web pages, including mobile phone numbers, browsing records, IP addresses, etc. This information can be used for many purposes when it comes to them.
Since our mobile phone numbers are all real name authentication, they can obtain real name information through their mobile phone numbers after they know their mobile phone numbers. At the same time, WeChat is also threatened.
Knowing this, they can also use the IP address to locate your location, even to the community where you live.
In addition, access to browsing records can help you understand your preferences, such as what kind of products you like to buy and what movies you like to watch. These information are recorded behind your mobile phone number, and then your information will be sold to various companies.
When analyzing 22484 pornographic websites, researchers from Microsoft, Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pennsylvania found that Google and its advertising platform DoubleClick and other subsidiaries have trackers on 74% of pornographic websites, while Facebook has trackers on 10% of websites.
These companies will recommend their products to you by sending text messages or making harassing calls according to your preferences.
In order to maximize the benefits, personal information will be transferred and sold repeatedly. So in addition to receiving spam messages and harassment calls, many people have also received fraud calls. For example, the person on the phone lied to you that the express delivery was detected positive, so he would settle a claim against you, let you download the software according to his tips, and gradually trick you to deposit money into the account of the software.
In fact, relying on the sale of user information to make a profit is just one of the ways to make money for some small websites such as pornographic websites.
The Internet has not been so popular, and pornographic websites have not been so rampant. At that time, their main way of making profits was to let people watch videos from members. Only after paying money can they watch videos inside. At that time, there were few channels to watch pornographic videos, and many netizens were willing to rush members.
Later, with the popularization of the Internet, everyone is surfing the Internet, and pornographic websites are also "developing" with the Internet. According to the first half of 2020, Tencent Security Anti fraud Laboratory detected that more than 4000 pornographic domain names are added every day. Up to now, more than 3 million pornographic domain names have been found in total, and about 350 million pornographic domain name visits are blocked every day.
A growing number of pornographic websites appear on the interface of each page in the form of pop-up windows, which will be clicked accidentally, and when clicked, a page with full screen "hot eyes" will be entered. This "rape type" recommendation method has brought troubles to many people.
In particular, teachers who use large screens to teach students in schools. Many people must have experienced such an embarrassing scene, of course, the most embarrassing is the teacher. When I was lecturing, a window of a yellow website popped up. If the teacher was nervous and shook his hand, he would want to find a crack in the ground.
A large number of pornographic websites make it easier to watch pornographic videos, so the former profit making method of viewing pornographic videos only as members will definitely not work.
At present, pornographic websites mainly make profits by selling personal information and "fishing".
Selling personal information has been mentioned before. What is "fishing" here?
In pornographic websites, there are pop ups like "Macau Casino", and pornographic websites are lures to gamble, which is called "fishing".
You may ask, can this method really catch fish? I can really catch a lot of fish.
You may not point in and gamble. But some people will. Even if one in a thousand people gambles, if there are hundreds of thousands of people browsing pornographic websites every day, there are many big fish. And once gambling begins, the gambling website behind the pornographic website must have more routines to cheat this person into losing his fortune step by step.
There are also some pornographic websites with trojans. These viruses are implanted into your mobile phone at the moment you click into the web page, and then these viruses will enter various software in the mobile phone. At this time, the information it obtains later is not only mobile phone numbers, search records and so on. It can obtain your ID card information and bank card password. Your property will be seriously threatened.
Therefore, in order to avoid such things, it is best not to visit these websites. If you find that your money has been stolen, you should call the police in time and seek help from the police.
In addition, these viruses will also download a pile of junk software in your phone, occupy your phone's memory, and harm your phone's running speed. As time goes on, your phone will become more and more stuck.
Finally, these websites also have a significant impact on our physical and mental health. Pornography, bloody violence and other images distort people's three views. People with weak self-control are likely to embark on the path of crime in real life.
The harm to minors is even greater. Due to the general lack of sexual education related knowledge among minors in China, they are curious about pornographic websites. Once clicked, they are easily affected by violent and unequal sexual relations in pornographic videos, forming a deformed view of love. And often watching pornographic videos will also delay learning.
In addition, it is possible to engage in online gambling. Over the years, there have been many cases of minors indulging in gambling. On September 9, 2021, the police station of Huangzhan, Dawu County, Xiaogan City received a message from the security brigade of the county bureau, "Two people in your area are suspected of participating in online gambling, please check it quickly".
According to the investigation, one of the two was still a student. In 2019, Liu found a game software that could make money on the Internet. This game software is actually online gambling software in the guise of games. Liu has been out of control since he first recharged 100 yuan. He kept throwing in more than 10000 yuan. When he ran out of money, he began to send the website to his classmates so that they could download it together and earn promotion fees. Suspected of using the Internet to open a casino.
The emergence of the Internet has indeed brought us a lot of convenience.
First of all, people to people communication can be seen face to face through the Internet. In interpersonal communication, we can not only show ourselves that people in life can communicate on the Internet, but also meet new people on the Internet. These people may be thousands of miles away from you, but you can still become netizens because of your hobbies and chatting.
In addition to interpersonal communication, the Internet has a huge role in resource sharing. It is mainly about the sharing of educational resources. No matter what age group, you can find the knowledge you want to know on the Internet. In some places where educational resources are scarce, the Internet can be used to fill in the gaps. Sitting at home can also watch the courses of famous teachers, which is helpful to the imbalance of education.
The Internet has enriched our life. We can share our interests and hobbies on the Internet, talk with like-minded people, and pursue our favorite plays and games anytime and anywhere. We also get news information more quickly through the Internet to understand national events.
Others use the Internet to start businesses. For example, Taobao stores, Tiaoyin live broadcast with goods, and a series of software, covering all aspects of our lives. With mobile payment software, we no longer need to carry cash when going out; With taxi software, we can count the time to take a taxi in advance before going out, and no longer have to stand by the road in the hot sun or cold wind. With the rental software, we can learn about the source of houses through videos and pictures on the Internet, instead of going to the intermediary company to see the houses one by one
However, everything has its advantages and disadvantages.
The convenience of the Internet also allows some criminals to use the Internet to cheat money "conveniently and quickly". Teenagers' addiction to online games affects their health and academic performance. Some people rely too much on the Internet world, escape from reality, and become more and more closed in life.
Therefore, we should be more vigilant, enhance self-control, treat the Internet rationally, make rational use of the Internet, and make the Internet available to us. The key is not to become the "slave" of the Internet.
