Vladimir Bezmaly | 05.25.2021
- Hi, Dad! Can I leave Mashenka with you for a few hours tomorrow? I need to run around the shops, my husband is at work, and I can’t take her with me!
- Of course! I'm always happy to see my granddaughter! Bring her!
The morning has come.
- Hello! Here we are!
- Come in! Leave Mashenka and run where you need to go! Don't worry!
Potapych loved his granddaughter very much, he doted on her, and Mashenka took advantage of this very successfully. She especially loved asking her grandfather "adult" questions. And so it happened.
- Grandpa, what is a "password"? You talk about it so often, but I don't understand.
- Good! Sit down next to me, I'll try to tell you. Mashenka, when you, mom and dad leave the house, does mom lock the door?
- Do you know that even now there are countries in the world where they don't lock their doors? They just trust each other. It's called a trusting society! They trust each other.
- Yes? And there are no villains there?
- No! It's not there.
— What does the password have to do with it?
— And considering that today we don’t have such a australia whatsapp data and a password is like your apartment key. Did you see how complex it is? The same applies to your password. It should be complex and long, so that it’s hard to guess. Besides, remember, Mom has several keys, and Dad does too. Keys to the apartment, to the dacha, to work, to the car...
— So, each door has its own key, and they are all different? And the passwords too?
- Yes. Each place on the Internet has its own password. And they are all different.
- How come mom doesn’t get involved with them?
- Grandpa, you're so funny! Of course!
