🏠 5 Quick Fixes to Stop Smart Devices from Spying on You

Feeling watched in your own home?

You just might be. Smart gadgets are great, but they’re also curious little creatures, collecting data you never meant to share. Here's how to stop them in their tracks:

✅ Change Default Passwords

Default = danger. Create strong, unique passwords for every device.

🔐 Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).

Even if someone cracks your password, 2FA locks the door behind them.

📱 Review App Permissions

Some apps love to snoop. Revoke access to the mic, location, or camera if not needed.

🛑 Disconnect What You Don’t Use

Not using your smart speaker this week? Unplug it.

🌐 Put Smart Devices on a Separate Network

Use a guest Wi-Fi to keep your main devices isolated from IoT tech.

💡 Smart doesn’t have to mean “surveilled.” Stay in control by making these small changes today.
