2. Crowd sourcing- History: pre-internet to today

If you don't use an encrypted HTTPS address, a proxy server can easily collect and store your personal information and use it for nefarious purposes.                                           

Access to everything they bring through that door.

When using a wireless wi-fi network in a public place such as a hotel, always check its legitimacy with the staff as it could very easily be set up by a hustler looking to gain your credit card details and spend your money on various objects without your knowledge.
