Quiz — Safe Browsing
Quiz on browser privacy, VPNs, public Wi-Fi, and connection checks
Safe Browsing — apply the controls, keep the ethic
Ten APPLY scenarios. You hardened a browser (third-party cookies, permissions, HTTPS-Only, banking profile), learned what a VPN tunnel does and does not do, treated café Wi-Fi as shared L2 without scanning it, and scored YOUR path with curl/dig. Scope is still your device, example.com, or a public-IP echo of yourself. Next: Social Media Privacy.
APPLY: News and a shop both embed ads.tracker.example, which stores a cookie for that tracker domain. What did the third-party cookie enable?
APPLY: A shopping site that is not a video call asks for camera, microphone, and precise location "to confirm you are human." Best response?
APPLY: HTTPS-Only is on. https://bank-secure-login.example shows a padlock; the real bank is https://bank.example. You also bank in the same profile as social media. What failed?
APPLY: On café Wi-Fi you enable a reputable VPN, then log into your real Google account over HTTPS. Which sentence is accurate?
APPLY: When does a VPN help, and when is it theater?
APPLY: Two SSIDs look like the café. You did not ask staff. You need to check a bank balance. Which two actions stay in this course's ethic? (Select 2)
APPLY: A hotel captive portal offers a configuration profile that "enables secure Wi-Fi" by installing a trusted certificate. Why refuse it for banking?
APPLY: Which command set matches the Privacy Score lab on YOUR connection?
APPLY: True or False: A VPN kill switch helps if the tunnel drops; it still does not make you anonymous to a site you log into, and it does not authorize capturing other guests on public Wi-Fi.
APPLY: True or False: After Safe Browsing, the next lesson is Social Media Privacy — still about YOUR accounts and settings, not scraping or attacking other people's profiles.
