I've bought myself a 'tablet' to replace an old 'Notebook' laptop thingy.
I'm not familiar with these devices but I thought it about time I was. Recently I went on holiday without my Netbook or digital camera and got on fine with just my HTC 'phone however I was using an 'open' free WiFi facility and that worried me.
I went a bit OTT with the Tablet because I wanted a 10" screen (the phone was a nightmare) and also high resolution. It's a Samsung Tab S and cost me £300.
I use ESET security (after Johnny P's advice) on my PC and Netbook - it seems fine. Do I need the same on my tablet and I'm scrapping my Netbook so can I transfer it.
Secondly everything I try to use on the tablet e.g. Google, Chrome, Utube etc wants me to give away all my privacy so they can 'enhance my experience' and track my location etc. I'm not sure I want this but I don't want to limit myself (I need to learn about Apps!).
Apps - are these just a way of short-cutting access to sites I use and give me personalised pages? For instance if I use a Utube app will this take me straight to my account?
Tapatalk - when I come on the ZClub site it gives me a tapatalk option?
I know this is a massive subject and I should google all my questions but can you just guide me re security so I don't make mistakes from the start.
Anybody know a good 'idiots' guide or tutorial?
