[QUOTE="Deleted member 178, post: 558646"] [USER=37647]@shmu26[/USER] let me explain simply. Whatever you do on your computer , when you access internet you send packets of datas, which will pass between routers/relays/networks until they reach the destination you want (server/website/computer). Then you will get a response, from the destination. Now let say i want to know what/where/who you are communicating, all i have to do is to take over one of the relay between you and the destination, since you have no access to those relays , you can't protect it. Now that i have access to the relay i can reconstruct the datas and read (Eavesdropping) what you are communicating, i can even modify the content to my needs. you have a good example here: [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man-in-the-middle_attack']Man-in-the-middle attack - Wikipedia[/URL] [/QUOTE]
