So you’re scrolling through Twitter. That means you’ve got a minute! Good.

Why not use that minute to stop scrolling and take a few steps to get a little more #PrivacyAware?

All of the things in this thread will literally take you one minute. We timed it! [THREAD]

Chances are your phone’s name is your name. That means every time you connect to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth everyone around you can see your name.

Keep it to yourself by editing your device name in settings. Here’s how:

While you’re in your phone’s settings, adjust your app permissions to limit access to your location details, photos and contacts.

Maybe even stop notifications altogether.

OK this might take a few minutes on its own, but it’s important. Update your computer’s operating system if you haven’t lately! Clicking “remind me tomorrow” won’t cut it forever (you know who you are).

Updating your software protects you against viruses & malware.

This one is easy. Still on Facebook?
