"your password is incorrect"!!
This was the 6th time this message flashed across my mobile screen. And with every attempt I was pushed to regret my decision of buying a smart phone! If having a smart phone was an amazing experience ,then , dealing with the security policies of a high end mobile phone is a completely different story.
A smart phone indeed changed my perception of what a moblie phone could do. It virtually brought every possible technology within the accessibility of a mobile phone :) But sadly the smart technology comes with a heavy price of dealing with the repercussions of complex security policies.

Each and every feature is password protected and comes with a lot of additional security layers to protect both the users and the data from hackers.
Gone are the days when hacking was specific to a website or a portal. These days private accounts like gmail and facebook pose a greater threat to being hacked. Hacking of such private accounts might not pose a national level security breach ,but , it indeed opens up the vulnerability and the ease of breaking into one's private account.
I suppose half of our life span is spent in trying to remember the countless user id s and password :/ starting from email login to bank transactions to every little feature that is locked with a password.And trust me, the last thing i can remember in this world is the " security question"! * sigh*.
I miss the days when communication was simple and easy when compared to the rather complicated nature of the mobile phones these days.
Today if i miss or lose my phone , my life is pretty much a hazed blur till i find a replacement! We have complicated our lives so much that living without a mobile phone even for a single day is pretty much a nightmare :/
With the current rate of technological advancement ,"saturation" is not far behind. The gap between the fantasy world of gizmos and gadgets is fast shrinking.
I didn't need Facebook to remind me of my friend's birthdays, I didn't need whatsapp to stay connected, and above all my mobile phone was just a communicating device and not a high tech monster gadget which took care of all my needs.
So as we continue to battle the tech game day in and day out here is wishing all of us a hassle free gadget times :)
cheers,
Sandy :)
