The personal information of many individuals is held by large internet companies and organisations. Do you think the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?

Nowadays a large number of people trust their personal

information

to companies

such

as Facebook or Apple. While some people think the positive aspects of

this

outweigh the drawbacks, I believe the disadvantages are more relevant and

this

essay will discuss the arguments.

Although

these companies have a strong security system, they are always attacked by hackers. These hackers try to get some private

information

and usually they succeed.

For example

, in 2014 hackers attacked Apple database and exposed the personal

information

of hundreds of actors and famous around the world. Even personal photos and videos were leaked. Unfortunately, these attacks happen frequently and not only famous are the targets, but

also

ordinary people.

Additionally

, these companies usually apologize but they do not take any actions to repair the damage.

In other words

, once the data is stolen they say they cannot do anything. In my opinion, the best way to avoid

such

a problem is to keep your personal

information

.

For example

,

instead

of using cloud services to store your data, you can use pen drives and keep with you.

This

can help you to maintain your

information

and do not be surprised by the news saying that your cloud service was threatened by hackers and you had your info spread To sum up, even though utilizing internet companies to keep personal

information

is easy and practical, I believe it is not the best option. These companies are often attacked by hackers and you are likely to have your personal

information

exposed.
