Technology Myths Are Not Completely True
Technology is often called bound by clear and scientific facts. Even so, current users of technology are not always like that. The proof, there are still many myths around smartphone users and are believed to be the right thing.
A few years ago, not a few people linked Mac devices as virus-free devices. But in fact, in the last few years the device made by Apple began to become the target of malware developers. This was also finally recognized by Apple as the pembesut, especially after a Trojan attack that infected thousands of Mac devices in 2012.
In fact, last year, malware attacks targeting Mac devices increased dramatically, exceeding the total number of malware attacks on Mac OS X from 2010 to 2014. Not only that, in a recent report, one of the data hostage malware, ransomware, also reportedly began targeting Mac devices . This malware attack called KeRanger is the first time it has happened on a Mac device.
Until now, it cannot be denied that there is a misconception about the terms 'incognito' or 'private' mode which are interpreted as access to an anonymous account. However, the purpose of the two modes is not the case. This mode does not actually make a person seem invisible when accessing a site, but the browser will not track browsing history, save bookmarks, or automatically log in to commonly accessed accounts.
This feature helps prevent strangers from accessing site information or personal accounts when accessing the internet on other people's devices. Not that this feature can hide the identity of the accessor and ISP used.
However, the fact is there is no scientific evidence that overcharging can destroy the battery. This is supported by the fact that almost all smartphones now use lithium-ion batteries. This type of battery turns out to have the ability to stop charging when the battery is full.
However, Apple as pembesut turned out to refute this. The company from Cupertino said that the battery used on the iPhone allows users to charge at any time. Apple is based, the lithium-ion battery used works on a charging cycle. So, when the user has completed one charging cycle, the iPhone that has been reduced can be recharged immediately, without the need to wait for the condition of the smartphone to die.
Today, most users see the quality of a smartphone's camera based on the size of the megapixel pinned - the bigger the megapixel the better. Even though the megapixel size does not always promise a better camera capability. Another factor that also affects the camera's ability is the sensor used to capture light. Therefore, a camera with 8MP and 12MP resolution can produce more or less the same photos.
However, it should be known, the greater the sensor used also affects the results of pixels that are also getting bigger. So, a camera is not only determined by the magnitude of the megapixel, but the number of pixels that can be produced.
Technology Myths Are Not Completely True
One of them is the myth about the dangers of charging a smartphone overnight, or even the screen quality is determined by the resolution used. Although there is not enough scientific evidence and explanation, there are still many users who believe that. Therefore, quoting information from Business Insider, Monday (2/18/2019), Tekno Liputan6.com summarizes some of the myths of technology that are still trusted and their explanations.
1. Mac computers cannot be attacked by viruses
A few years ago, not a few people linked Mac devices as virus-free devices. But in fact, in the last few years the device made by Apple began to become the target of malware developers. This was also finally recognized by Apple as the pembesut, especially after a Trojan attack that infected thousands of Mac devices in 2012.
In fact, last year, malware attacks targeting Mac devices increased dramatically, exceeding the total number of malware attacks on Mac OS X from 2010 to 2014. Not only that, in a recent report, one of the data hostage malware, ransomware, also reportedly began targeting Mac devices . This malware attack called KeRanger is the first time it has happened on a Mac device.
2. The browser incognito mode does not mean the accessor becomes invisible
Until now, it cannot be denied that there is a misconception about the terms 'incognito' or 'private' mode which are interpreted as access to an anonymous account. However, the purpose of the two modes is not the case. This mode does not actually make a person seem invisible when accessing a site, but the browser will not track browsing history, save bookmarks, or automatically log in to commonly accessed accounts.
This feature helps prevent strangers from accessing site information or personal accounts when accessing the internet on other people's devices. Not that this feature can hide the identity of the accessor and ISP used.
3. The battery will break quickly if it continues to be recharged
As technology develops, the usefulness of smartphones continues to increase. Even so, there is still data theft. One myth that many smartphone users still believe is that the battery will be damaged if it is still charged even though the capacity is full.
However, the fact is there is no scientific evidence that overcharging can destroy the battery. This is supported by the fact that almost all smartphones now use lithium-ion batteries. This type of battery turns out to have the ability to stop charging when the battery is full.
4. iPhone charging is done after the battery is completely discharged
Another myth related to batteries that is quite popular is that the iPhone should be filled when the battery is in an empty condition.
However, Apple as pembesut turned out to refute this. The company from Cupertino said that the battery used on the iPhone allows users to charge at any time. Apple is based, the lithium-ion battery used works on a charging cycle. So, when the user has completed one charging cycle, the iPhone that has been reduced can be recharged immediately, without the need to wait for the condition of the smartphone to die.
5. The size of a megapixel does not always determine the quality of the camera
Today, most users see the quality of a smartphone's camera based on the size of the megapixel pinned - the bigger the megapixel the better. Even though the megapixel size does not always promise a better camera capability. Another factor that also affects the camera's ability is the sensor used to capture light. Therefore, a camera with 8MP and 12MP resolution can produce more or less the same photos.
However, it should be known, the greater the sensor used also affects the results of pixels that are also getting bigger. So, a camera is not only determined by the magnitude of the megapixel, but the number of pixels that can be produced.
