I like to remain in denial about how much of my personal information is available on the dark web because I like to sleep at night. However, all of us including everyone in the state of Wisconsin needs to wake up because there's a good chance that everyone's social security number has already been stolen.

If you receive Medicaid in Wisconsin, you should be aware of a recent data breach which may have made your private information exposed according to a statement by the state health authorities.

This happens all the time and I would estimate that few drivers on Illinois roads even realize it. Did you know that Illinois State Police are automatically scanning license plates? They've just shared the reason why it's necessary.

I suppose it was inevitable. There are numerous reports that clothing stores that have hundreds of locations in Wisconsin are now either considering or already using body cameras on employees.

I am not anti-tech and I can prove it, but I am concerned about what an Illinois grocery chain is doing that includes doing away with cashiers and the traditional checkout process and allowing stores to be run completely by artificial intelligence. Yes, the robots are taking over.

You will notice a definite change at Missouri and Illinois Target stores beginning this weekend as a sweeping policy change will directly affect your experience especially in the checkout area where you pay for your stuff.

If you think you're safe in Missouri just because you have a hi-tech security system, think again. Reports say gangs are now using their own elicit technology to scramble home security systems so they can break into expensive homes.

Tired of getting spam texts or other messages from numbers you don't recognize? Do this.

How long until debit and credit cards become as vintage as checkbooks?

Say what you want about Illinois but some pretty significant inventions in the world were invented in the state.
