Do ‘I’m on vacation’ posts pose security concerns?

Tags: , — David Canton @ 7:45 am

That’s the title of my Slaw post today.   It reads as follows:

Take a look at the article by that title on the Canoe Tech page.

It questions whether the tendency for people to put reply messages on emails that they are on vacation, or talk about their vacation plans or current locations on Facebook and Twitter is setting themselves up for breakins. Most people would not have a home voice-mail saying they are away, or let newspapers pile up on their doorstep while they are away – so is letting the world know about it by one’s web 2.0 tools any different?.

Take a look at the article and feel free to add your 2 cents worth in the comments.
