Websites and third parties often utilise cookies to track your internet usage and data. They then use your data for advertising purposes. Cookies are a major reason why you receive "creepy" or targeted advertisements. While the best option is to cut them out entirely, customising cookie settings to reduce them as much as possible is also acceptable.

CORRECT answer: NEVER partially correct: MY device

Most common internet browsers have options to save and encrypt your passwords for your use, however, these methods are by no means fullproof and a determined attacker may be able to see your passwords. The best option is always to remember your passwords, but storing passwords exclusively on your own, secure device is not a terrible option either.

CORRECT answer: Reject

Pop up ads promising rewards are almost never ethical in purpose. Clicking them may lead users to automatic download links, questionable websites, or install malware onto their device. Even some seemingly certified or authentic websites can possess these dangerous ads. In general, it is worth it to refuse whatever rewards offered by the ads and play it safe.

CORRECT answer: Nope. partially correct: Only forbrowsing

While public WiFi may seem like a great idea, it often comes with drawbacks and risks. Because public WiFi connections are not always encrypted or secured the way private internet connections are, it is often very easy for entities with malicious intent to access your private information, track your activity, and collect data. When using public WiFi, you should take care not to sign in to any potentially unsafe websites or utilize sensitive information. It is always better to use a Virtual PrivateNetwork (VPN), hotspot, or mobile datawhen using technology in public places.
