By Eric Griffith Verified, Iyaz Akhtar, Evan Dashevsky| PCMag UK Verified Remember that scene in War Games when the code monkeys explain the concept of backdoors (i.e., secret pathways planted by programmers) to aspiring hacker Matthew Broderick? Well, as it turns out, that's actually a thing. Coders have a storied tradition of creating back doors in programs (or sometimes just fun little Easter eggs) that can only be accessed with a special "key." This has happened for almost as long as personal computers have existed, and the tradition continues in the mobile age.
By Eric Griffith Verified, Evan Dashevsky| PCMag India Verified The browser history—a list of every page you've visited online and the time you were there—is a standard of modern computing. And it can lead to trouble; it's practically a cliché. Think of the romantic "comedies" where a guy (it's always a guy) finds himself in hot water after his girlfriend looks at his browser history. For most of us, sharing a PC is normal (sadly, setting up multiple user accounts is not) and handing off a smartphone to someone isn't unheard of.
