Amazon Can Share Your Wifi With Strangers

- How To Opt-Out

Did you know that if you have an Amazon Echo or an Amazon Ring device, Amazon automatically shares your home internet connection with anyone walking by your house on the street??

It is called Amazon sidewalk, and the service aims to provide Internet access to your neighbor's devices when their Internet goes down or give access to Amazon devices roaming throughout a neighborhood. There are many obvious privacy concerns about this service.

My main problem is that Amazon automatically includes all compatible devices without asking for permission. It is up to the users to specifically opt-out via the Amazon Alexa or Ring apps.

The good news is that you can opt out if you do not wish to take part in Amazon Sidewalk by following these steps.

For Amazon Echo devices

•Open your Amazon Alexa App.

-Select the More option in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. •Go to Settings > Account Settings > Amazon Sidewalk.

Set the Amazon Sidewalk toggle to disabled.


For Ring devices

Open the Ring app.

Tap the three-lined icon to open the menu and go to Control Center > Amazon Sidewalk.

Set the Amazon Sidewalk toggle to disabled.

The New UltraFICO Credit Score: COMING EARLY 2019

Here’s how the new model works, in sum: If a consumer has a short credit history or a few bad marks on their report, they will be able to request that lenders that their UltraFICO score into account, which will be determined by their bank account, rather than their credit history. UltraFICO will take into account a person’s checking balance (CONSUMERS WILL NEED TO MAINTAIN AN AVERAGE $400 BALANCE), length of checking history, transaction frequency and overdraw history. (NO OVERDRAFTS IN 3 MONTHS BEFORE APPLYING) If you already have a good credit score/history, the new scoring model won’t be helpful for you.

Lenders will focus on your debt-to-income ratio, which is the ratio of your total monthly income compared with your monthly debt obligations. For example, if you have $10,000 of monthly income and $3,000 of monthly debt expenses, then your debt-to-income ratio is $30%.

Tip: The lower your debt-to-income ratio, the better. You can improve your debt-to-income ratio by increasing income or decreasing debt (or both).
