Background & Context
As someone who’s been in the music and radio industry for over 30 years, I’ve spent countless nights in hotels. One thing I’ve learned in all those years? Never use the ports in hotels. Why? Security. You never know who’s been tampering with those ports, potentially installing malware that could steal your personal information. In this video, I’ll explain why I don’t use hotel ports, the risks associated with them and what you should do instead. This isn’t just for tech whizzes, it’s for everyone who travels, who values their privacy and wants to keep their devices safe.
