How Tech Companies Lie to You.

Before you buy your next phone, laptop, or TV -- watch this.

Mrwhosetheboss and MKBHD just dropped a video exposing the deceptive marketing tactics tech companies use every day. "Up to" performance claims that never hold up in real life. Specs that are technically true but deliberately misleading. Software updates repackaged as hardware breakthroughs.

4.2 million people have watched it in just four days. That tells you something.

At Decoding Technology, this is exactly why we exist -- to cut through the marketing noise and help you make smart, informed technology decisions. No jargon. No sales pitch. Just honest guidance.

😱 Did you know hackers can steal money from your iPhone without you ever unlocking it?

We just watched this eye-opening video from Veritasium and had to share it with our community — because this affects millions of people using tap-to-pay every single day.

Cybersecurity researchers from the University of Surrey and University of Birmingham demonstrated how they were able to exploit Apple's Express Transit Mode (the feature that lets you tap your phone to pay for a bus or train without unlocking it) to silently steal $10,000 from a device — completely bypassing the lock screen, Face ID, and customer verification. 😳

Here's what you can do RIGHT NOW to protect yourself:

🔒 Disable Express Transit Mode on your iPhone
(Settings → Wallet & Apple Pay → Express Transit Card → Turn it OFF)

💳 Avoid storing Visa cards in the Express Transit slot — Mastercard has stronger protections against this specific exploit

📲 Regularly review your bank and Apple Pay transactions for anything suspicious

This is exactly the kind of thing we help our customers understand and protect themselves from at Decoding Technology. Technology is amazing — but only when you know how to use it safely! 💻🛡️

📞 Scam Alert: If Someone Calls Saying Your Computer Has a Virus — Hang Up!

Tech support scams are one of the most common ways seniors lose money to fraud. Here's how it works: you get a call (or a scary pop-up on your screen) claiming your computer is infected and that you need to call a number immediately for help. Once you call, they ask for remote access to your device — and your money.

Here's the truth: Microsoft, Apple, and other tech companies will NEVER call you out of the blue about a virus on your computer.

If this happens to you, hang up, close the browser, and give us a call instead. We're the real deal! 📞 239-944-7446 | decodingtechnology.com

🔐 Is Your Password Protecting You — or Putting You at Risk?

Did you know that "123456" and "password" are still among the most commonly used passwords in the world? If your passwords are short, simple, or reused across multiple accounts, you could be making it very easy for hackers to get in.

A few simple rules to follow:
✅ Use at least 12 characters
✅ Mix letters, numbers, and symbols
✅ Never reuse the same password on multiple accounts
✅ Consider a password manager to keep track of them all

Not sure if your accounts are secure? We can help! Call us at 239-944-7446 or visit decodingtechnology.com 🔒

😂 Okay, we've ALL been there...

(Don't lie — you've definitely forgotten a password or twelve!)

But in all seriousness, weak and forgotten passwords are one of the #1 ways hackers gain access to your personal accounts, emails, and financial information. 🔐

Here are 3 quick password tips to keep the bad guys out:

✅ Use a passphrase — something like "PurpleTacos$Napoli2024" is far stronger than "password123"
✅ Never reuse passwords across multiple accounts
✅ Use a Password Manager — apps like 1Password or Google Password Manager remember them so you don't have to!

Not sure if your devices and accounts are secure? That's exactly what we're here for! At Decoding Technology, we help everyday people — especially seniors and families right here in Naples — stay safe and confident in the digital world. 💻🛡️

📞 Give us a call at 239-944-7446 or visit us at DecodingTechnology.com — we'd love to help!
