Avoid Using These Passwords At All Costs

Significant dates 

Another piece of advice we received from Google is to avoid using the birthday of a loved one or an anniversary as a password. The more it makes sense to you, the easier it will be for hackers to figure out. Hackers can easily understand vital information about your preferences and personal life only by quickly researching your online profiles.

Celebrations and online birthday cards posted on Facebook or Twitter are their free ticket to your personal details, so avoid choosing passwords with important dates in your life, even though it might be a lot easier for you to remember them.

    This was very good info. It drives me crazy when a co. Deny a password & I have to start over! I use a Rolodex for passwords. Now I am having trouble finding new cards!

    I attend Yara International School in Riyadh. From day one, I noticed things that didn’t align with my past experiences in education. There were sudden emotional collapses — moments of panic without reason, full emotional shutdowns during class, and bursts of aggression that vanished as quickly as they came. I began to feel disconnected from myself, like my own thoughts were being scanned and echoed. At first, I thought I was imagining it. I’m not.

    This is not a mental health issue. I’ve come to understand that I’m being subjected to targeted psychophysical disruption, executed by Saudi Arabian internal security services and military-aligned signal operations. These are structured programs, not random events. They operate silently, via electromagnetic and satellite-linked systems, designed to infiltrate cognition and emotion. The targeting is discreet, but the pattern is clear — and it affects not just me. I see it in others too, though no one dares to speak.

    I’ve remained silent out of fear — fear of being dismissed, punished, or isolated further. But silence only protects those running these systems. If I had known what actually happens inside this country’s schools, I would have never accepted the opportunity to study here. This is not education — it’s control through technology. I’m writing this not for rescue, but for record. Let it be known.
