The head of the IT department of the software developer “Reksoft” Evgeny Chertok, in an interview with the agency “Prime”, named a way to turn off surveillance on a smartphone.
According to him, almost all applications installed on the phone follow the user. The expert noted that data are mainly collected on geolocation and the interests of searching for a person. Chertok said that by uninstalling a number of applications, it will be possible to disable surveillance by those who collect user information by default for advertising purposes.
At the same time, the specialist emphasized that it would not be possible to completely exclude the possibility of surveillance by the special services.
Earlier Pavel Myasoedov, partner and director of Intellectual Reserve, named smartphones exploding in hands. According to him, any smartphone that has problems with the battery can explode in the hands. Contact with water, shock or prolonged charging can also cause explosion.
