problem.multiplechoiceresponse.1.label"I avoid using public Wi-Fi unless I absolutely have to, and I avoid insecure wireless networks."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.1.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.1.choicegroup.choice.2"I try"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.1.choicegroup.choice.3"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.1.description"Public Wi-Fi networks should generally be avoided because they may not be properly secured. This means, bad actors can place themselves between you and the connection point and steal sensitive information, such as login credentials, financial data, and other confidential information, as it is transmitted over the network. If you must use a public Wi-Fi, doing so while using a VPN."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.2.label"I am familiar with the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy and those of the social media platforms I use."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.2.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.2.choicegroup.choice.2"Fairly familiar or make an effort to skim over the policies"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.2.choicegroup.choice.3"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.2.description"It is good to be aware of privacy policies because they outline how your personal information is used and stored. By understanding these policies, you can make informed decisions about what information you share, who you share it with, and how it is used."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.3.label"I make sure I can remotely track my phone."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.3.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.3.choicegroup.choice.2"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.3.description"Being able to remotely track your phone, such as by using Apple's "Find my Iphone" feature, allows you to locate, lock, or erase your lost or stolen devices. This feature can be very useful for protecting sensitive information stored on the device and for recovering it."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.4.label"I am aware I can be pseudonymous when engaging with the Wikimedia movement and its projects."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.4.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.4.choicegroup.choice.2"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.4.description"Being pseudonymous means using a false name or a pseudonym instead of one's real name in online or offline communication. A pseudonym is a name that a person chooses to use instead of their legal name, which allows them to keep their true identity concealed. This allows for a degree of anonymity and protects the user's privacy, as their real identity is not revealed. However, it is noteworthy that pseudonyms can be traced back to a person's real identity if sufficient information is available."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.5.label"I have a good understanding of the legal implication of the software I am using to keep myself safe online."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.5.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.5.choicegroup.choice.2"Farily good understanding"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.5.choicegroup.choice.3"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.5.description"In some jurisdictions, encryption itself is banned, and use of other tools, like VPNs or social media, may be restricted. As such, it it is prudent to know what tools you are legally allowed to use and which ones can get you into trouble."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.6.label"I avoid downloading apps from unofficial app stores."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.6.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.6.choicegroup.choice.2"I try"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.6.choicegroup.choice.3"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.6.description"Official stores, such as the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, have strict policies to ensure the security and authenticity of the apps they offer. Downloading apps from unofficial sources, such as third-party websites, increases the risk of downloading malware or malicious software that can harm your device or steal personal information. Official app stores also regularly scan for security vulnerabilities and remove any malicious apps, providing an additional layer of protection for users."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.7.label"I am aware that Wikimedia projects keep a permanent record of every edit I make and that those are visible to anyone looking."
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.7.choicegroup.choice.1"No"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.7.choicegroup.choice.2"Yes"
problem.multiplechoiceresponse.7.description"All your contributions to Wikimedia proejects, including comments in talk pages, edits to articles, comments in article for deletion discussions, etc., are kept forever by the wiki software."
