ANDREW SWERDLOW: I use the Chrome web browser.
I think it's a particularly safe browser.
One thing I really appreciate--
and also other browsers like Firefox have this feature of
being able to see whether or not you've connected to an
encrypted site, whether or not you're using security between
your browser connection and the
website that you're visiting.
So with Chrome, if you see a nice green kind of box beside
the website's address, then you know that you've connected
through encryption, through a secure connection.
If it's red, it means that you're not using encryption.
There could be potentially an issue.
Someone could be intercepting your traffic.
