alert buttons for seniors
This includes different home security products like alarms. There are all sorts of alarms as well. The typical alarm is the burglar alarm, either hard wired or wireless. They are installed by contractors to give homeowners a
sense of security against burglars and intruders. Then there are other alarms, such as smoke or fire alarms. Fire alarms may not be so typical in homes but smoke alarms are pretty much basic and you may find these things installed in places like the bedroom and kitchen. These are safeguards that will help to warn people that there is a possible fire, prompting them to call the fire department or authorities for help. DetectorsBut more importantly, it is not the alarms but how they are triggered. For burglar alarms, homeowners can also ask their contractors to wire their house in such a way that when the
wires are tripped or cut in any way, the alarm will go off. However, it is more typical to see motion detectors now since technology has improved alarm systems. These motion detectors act much like wires but they use infrared beams instead of wires.
Finally, I'm a big Orwell fan and it intrigued me to learn that the reason he titled the book "1984" was because he began writing it in 1948. He simply inverted the 4 and the 8 to make it "1984. " Thanks again and continued success on HubPages and beyond!I think I saw that one. I remember thinking something along the lines of "Hmmm, not so far off from the truth. " I think there's a lot more surveillance that we know about or that we make ourselves aware of. How many times when signing up for a site or using an online app when there's a long contract of sort with all the indemnity and legal info do we actually read it before clicking "agree"?Or willingly give all of our info from a social media site that we keep open to just friends and family to every app we sign up for?It just seems as if it is starting to get out of hand and there is a huge difference between those who are IT savvy and those who are not in terms of protecting themselves and the ability to potentially monitor others.
