Safety of our personal information on the internet

In the article that i found, they talk about how nothing on the internet is safe from hackers and thieves. Hackers can use a simple computer to hack anyones bank accounts or any other account. A virus that took down a whole nuclear power plant in Iran recently escaped onto the internet and infected over 100,000 computers and this just means that our power grids, transportation and water distribution systems are at risk to be hacked. Reading over this article and seeing all the recent hackings makes me believe that instead of advancing in technology I think we should go back to the original methods of things where they were harder to get stolen. everyone who uses a computer is at risk of getting everything they have on the internet taken from them and i think that, that is just to
much of a risk to take.
