Warning to Fellow Music Lovers

Free Music Downloader


You might be told by one of your friends about applications that let you download "for free" music or you might be already using one - whatever the case - the risk your computer or you are damaged are very high.

99% of the free music downloaders are dangerous.


THE PROBLEM

Virus, Adware and Data Stealing - high risk for your digital identity , email address, phone numbers, social network account passwords, credit card information or online payment accounts.


What's happening

There are many applications that let you download "for free" music. There are about 10000 online applications - all over the world - but - warning - no one is really "free" - in fact - research shows that 100% of "free" software or websites that let you download music are used for stealing "user private information" - from email address to your phone number, Facebook account data and Credit Card information - a sort of Trojan Horse.

The way around Anti-Virus

The ways around your anti-virus are - mobile application , online web application and websites.

Free music downloader's looks like normal applications - but - unfortunately there's a catch hidden within of it. Most of free music download applications will not even ask for your email or to "register" - the software is designed to automatically monitor your network activity - record and send your private information - over the network to the builders.

Worse than RansomWare

Invisible, silent, friendly-looking - these are the characteristics of modern applications used to stole your data. But there's a good news, as long as you are aware of the risks you can just avoid free music - and artists all over the world will thank you.

Buy or rent the music is cheaper than you think - go for it - but - be aware - never let your guard down.

nobody do anything for no-reward

too cheap or free should trigger your mind alert.

Hi iJoel - nice to have you there

Unfortunately there are many data stealers - but - they all do it for the same reason - money.

The biggest market in the world is .... data market.

email addresses are sold and buy everyday by thousands of companies looking for advertising.
phone numbers - for SMS marketing
your name - for digital customer preferences - eventually tracking the category of products you have interest for.
credit card - there are ways to charge your credit card if they have the numbers and back-side little number.

and it's not all... unfortunately - nowadays - any type of data related to your online activity have a market value - there black market for data is - huge.

thank very much brother @digitalplayer

pleasure ijoel ... and I can see you have a nice blog - just followed. I would appreciate RESTEEM. Thank You

hank you very much. Please just follow me. I am happy to be able to share a benefit for all steemians

There is still nothing which beats spotify. I happily pay for it every month and have all the music I need available whereever I am

Good point - BUT - spotify might be a good option !! It's not the best.

there's also Google Music - you might want to consider.

There are many good music sellers - if one make a market research I am sure the best can be found. but I don't think it's spotify.

Thanks Aan. I Look forward for your blog new articles!!

I will show it soon @digitalplayer :))

Going to do it. Meanwhile check my posts! Help me with a resteem! :P
