  • Does a hacker have all of my information?

    Probably not. Most viruses are simple piece of code designed to do one task. Sometimes a hacker is just trying to annoy people, sometimes control their computer, or gather information en masse. Viruses are by definition ‘dumb.’ They are not targeted attacks; they are simply designed to have as wide a reach as possible.
