With the internet becoming a popularly growing resource, not just for fun and leisure activities but also for learning and being aware of important things, it\u2019s becoming harder for people to understand or safeguard themselves from the threats to the privacy of their online lives. Sometimes, the lure of sharing away that bit of super interesting information, makes us blindly ignore any kind of impact that we might have on our privacy.<\/p>\n
In such a case, it\u2019s very important for internet citizens to understand online privacy in a way that\u2019s applicable to their online life. This might vary depending on the type of content one is looking at.<\/p>\n
To address this problem, the Mozilla India community launched a \u201cPrivacy Month Campaign,\u201d which originally started in January 2016 and is repeated every January. Why January? Because, the January 28 happens to be the International Data Privacy day<\/a>, the whole month is observed as Privacy Month!<\/p>\n Most recently, other Mozilla communities joined the campaign to make a greater impact by sharing localised content. Some of these are Mozilla Italy, Brazil, Czech, Taiwan, Pakistan, Venezuela, Kenya and Hong Kong to name a few.<\/p>\n Here are the top privacy tips that we shared during this campaign:<\/p>\n Tip #15: Passwords are integral part of privacy. Choose them strong and long enough to defend yourselves. #privacymonth<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/H2f3oycybg<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Mozilla India (@MozillaIN) January 15, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
