NaruSaku Wiki Relaunched!
Hello fellow NaruSakus! I'm happy to announce the site transfer is complete! The new NaruSaku Wiki is now live!
Majority of the content from the old wiki has been carefully moved over and adjusted to the new format!
As we focus further on forming our own NaruSaku canon, some previous images and pages have been excluded from the move. Moving forward, we would like to avoid mentioning or referencing majority of the information presented from the end of Naruto onward. We would also like to avoid using the anime as a reference and focus on the original Naruto manga and databooks.
In preparation for Shinachiku Kosen, a big joint project created by NaruSaku fans, you may see it referenced on the wiki more often. But never fear, ALL NaruSaku AUs are welcome on the NaruSaku Wiki 🧡💛
If you previously had an account on the NaruSaku Wiki and created a page or two, it's likely your new account has already been created and is waiting for you! You will need to reset your password with either your username or email.
If you need a general idea of how the new wiki works, a page has been created to help you Get Started! Feel free to submit questions to our askbox if you are confused! As questions are answered and confusion is cleared, the Get Started page will be updated to reflect that.
In order to have an account created on the NaruSaku Wiki, you must complete the Request Access form. If you have edited a Wiki before, you know how susceptible it can be to vandalism and spam. In an effort to confirm our editors are real people, we ask you fill out the form earnestly.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A NARUSAKU FAN TO EDIT THE WIKI!
We look forward to more years of filling out the NaruSaku Wiki! Thanks for reading! 🌸🍥

I'm about to fucking throw something out of a window I stg:
Wifi stops working because reasons. Turn it off and back on to no avail. Unplug everything and plug it back in, no change.
Try to call the helpline number. My phone has decided it can't make or receive calls.
Try to log in to my Mobal account to ask them wtf is going on. Can't remember my password. Try the one I usually use, nope. Try a variant of it. "Your account is locked, please wait 30 minutes before trying again" AFTER TWO ATTEMPTS?!?! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
Finally get into my account. It suggests I reset my network settings, take out my SIM card and put it back in.
Try to do the above. "Before you reset your network settings, you must make a back up." Okay *attempts to make back up copy* "This requires a wifi connection" ARE YOU FFFF
Go ahead and reset without making a backup because atp I'm grumpy and idc anymore, turn phone off and on again, yay I can make calls! But also it turns out I didn't just reset my network settings; I reset EVERYTHING, so my phone is VERY LOUD AND VERY BRIGHT and I have none of my keyboards
The number I have to call is a toll number charging ¥30/minute
Finally get through to someone. The woman says my address doesn't exist. I assure her it does because I live here and I'm reading it from my residence card. About ¥90 later, she finds my address.
"I just tested your connection. Looks like it's not working" I KNOW THAT'S WHY I CALLED
I still have no wifi and probably won't until I get home from work (at least they're (hopefully) fixing it)
Found some Nutella that I forgot I had. Yay. Discovered that when stored at Japanese summer room temperature, it separates 🫠 (gonna mix it up as best I can and eat it anyway because just having a slice of plain ol white bread for dinner feels Very Sad Indeed)

I just deleted my nanowrimo account. It's something that had been hanging over my head for a while now. A couple of years ago with the redesign of the website I already accidentally deleted all my previous projects because I misunderstood the new active projects system. Also last year I was planning to revisit an old short story bundle project and didn't write a word all November due to circumstances. The whole AI thing was just the final push to make me delete the account. And a little cherry on top of that motivation was the password reset function where - to prove you are not a robot - they show you a bunch of uncanny valley AI generated images coupled with mind boggling, nigh unanswerable questions clearly meant to train a AI engine somewhere. It keeps going until you give up the sign up process or until some nebulous goal has been reached and there is no indication whether you did it right or not. Rather than discourage me, it actually gave me an extra dose of spite to want to delete the account.
And it's gone now. and maybe that is for the best. as I said, I have been unable to write much of anything (aside form work e-mails but those don't count) in the last few years and I found myself thinking things like 'in November it's Nanowrimo, that's when I'll really start writing again' and then I didn't (insert John Mulany gif here). So maybe Nano had become more of a hindrance than a help for my writing motivation in the end. I want to get to a point where I can write stories more confidently again. Maybe I'll try some of the alternatives that people have been posting about. Or maybe I'll disregard word processors all together and just write everything by hand in my illegible cursive.
One thing I do wholeheartedly believe is that human creativity is an infinte resource for as long as a mind if living. There is no moment when your mind stops being able to imagine or create new ideas for art, stories, crafts, whatever. I should rewatch Kiki's Delivery Service. end post.

AI Chats have taken over customer support systems and now any time I run into any actual tech problem I spend way too long trying to contact some kind of living breathing human being because the AI assumes my problems are caused by me because I'm too stupid to navigate a website by myself.
Ask for a live agent? Get a random phone number. Follow the phone tree. A robot voice tells me what webpage to visit and hangs up. Great news, asshole! I've been on that page this entire time and nothing you're telling me to do works the way it should!
Ask to digitally chat with a HUMAN being? You need to log in for that. No, sorry, you're locked out of your account and can't request a password reset for 24 hours! :)

Bitcoin and Morality: How Digital Currency Could Lead to a Better Society
In a world where financial systems are often riddled with corruption, manipulation, and inequality, the idea that a digital currency could lead to a more moral society may seem far-fetched. However, Bitcoin, with its decentralized and transparent nature, offers a glimpse into a future where financial fairness and ethical behavior could become the norm rather than the exception.
The Moral Challenges of Fiat Currency
For centuries, fiat currencies have been the bedrock of global economies. Yet, their management by governments and central banks often introduces moral dilemmas that go unnoticed by the general public. Inflation, for instance, is a hidden tax that erodes the savings and purchasing power of everyday citizens, disproportionately affecting those with lower incomes. When governments print money to bail out failing institutions, it creates a sense of injustice—rewarding the irresponsible while punishing the prudent.
Furthermore, traditional banking systems frequently exclude vast segments of the population, particularly in developing countries, perpetuating cycles of poverty and financial exclusion. These moral challenges inherent in fiat systems raise an important question: Can we create a financial system that is fair, transparent, and accessible to all?
The Ethical Foundation of Bitcoin
Bitcoin was born out of the 2008 financial crisis—a response to the widespread disillusionment with traditional financial institutions. At its core, Bitcoin embodies principles that align with ethical behavior: transparency, decentralization, and the concept of sound money.
Unlike fiat currencies, Bitcoin’s supply is capped at 21 million, ensuring that no central authority can devalue it through excessive printing. This scarcity introduces a level of trust and predictability that fiat currencies lack. Moreover, Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network, meaning no single entity controls it. Transactions are verified by a global network of nodes, making manipulation nearly impossible and fostering a sense of fairness.
Bitcoin as a Tool for Financial Fairness
One of the most compelling aspects of Bitcoin is its potential to promote financial fairness. In a world where access to financial services is often limited by geography, income, or political circumstances, Bitcoin offers an alternative. With nothing more than an internet connection, anyone can participate in the Bitcoin network, regardless of nationality or economic status.
This equal access is revolutionary. It levels the playing field, allowing individuals in developing countries to store and transfer wealth without relying on unstable local currencies or predatory financial institutions. Moreover, the peer-to-peer nature of Bitcoin transactions eliminates intermediaries, reducing fees and preventing third-party censorship.
The Influence of Bitcoin on Personal Responsibility
Bitcoin’s decentralized nature requires individuals to take responsibility for their own wealth. Unlike traditional banking, where a lost password can be reset with a phone call, Bitcoin ownership comes with the responsibility of securing one’s private keys. This shift from reliance on third parties to self-reliance fosters a greater sense of ownership and accountability.
In a broader sense, this responsibility can extend beyond financial matters. As people become more accustomed to taking control of their financial future, they may also develop a stronger sense of ethical behavior in other areas of their lives. The discipline required to manage Bitcoin effectively could encourage individuals to adopt a more thoughtful and deliberate approach to their decisions, leading to a more responsible society.
A Society Shaped by Bitcoin
Imagine a society where Bitcoin is the standard. Such a society could see significant reductions in corruption, as Bitcoin’s transparent ledger (the blockchain) makes it nearly impossible for illicit activities to go unnoticed. Every transaction is recorded on the blockchain, providing an immutable record that can be audited by anyone. This transparency could deter corrupt practices and promote honesty and accountability at all levels of society.
Furthermore, a Bitcoin-standard society would empower individuals to take control of their financial futures. Without the need for intermediaries, people could transact freely and securely, without fear of censorship or confiscation. This financial sovereignty could lead to a more liberated and morally conscious population, as individuals would no longer be at the mercy of corrupt or unstable financial institutions.
Challenges and Criticisms
While the potential for Bitcoin to foster a more moral society is compelling, it is not without challenges. One of the most common criticisms is Bitcoin’s energy consumption, with some arguing that the environmental impact of mining Bitcoin could outweigh its benefits. However, proponents point out that Bitcoin mining is increasingly powered by renewable energy and that the long-term benefits of a decentralized, transparent financial system could far outweigh these concerns.
Another challenge is the potential for Bitcoin to be used for illicit activities. While Bitcoin’s transparency makes it difficult to hide such activities, the pseudonymous nature of transactions has raised concerns. However, ongoing developments in blockchain analysis and regulatory frameworks are addressing these issues, making Bitcoin a safer and more secure option for all users.
Finally, the risk of wealth inequality in a Bitcoin-dominated economy is a valid concern. Early adopters of Bitcoin have seen significant gains, leading to fears that wealth concentration could occur. However, as Bitcoin continues to gain mainstream adoption, its distribution is likely to become more equitable, especially as more individuals and institutions recognize its value and utility.
Conclusion
Bitcoin is more than just a financial asset; it represents a paradigm shift in how we think about money, fairness, and morality. By promoting transparency, decentralization, and personal responsibility, Bitcoin has the potential to foster a more ethical and just society. While challenges remain, the possibilities for positive change are profound.
As we move forward into a world where Bitcoin plays an increasingly significant role, it’s essential to consider not just the financial implications, but the moral ones as well. Could Bitcoin be the key to creating a better, more ethical society? Only time will tell, but the potential is there for those who dare to imagine a future where money, morality, and fairness go hand in hand.

Public Library of Ruina - Yesod
I still dither a little about Yesod. He's either Information Technology, Information Services, or both. Both feels a little self-indulgent, but it's kind of what I want.
Information Technology is basically regular IT-- have you tried turning it off and back on again. The library doesn't add a huge amount to that-- more databases, a website, shitty civic budget, unpredictable public users. You're gonna replace a lot of keyboards. (You should probably take the ones where people rearranged the keys into swear words out of service. Or at least fix them first.)
Information Services is, at this point, extroverted IT. Back in the day, this was the department that specialized in "reference" questions-- the weird stuff. People would ask librarians for all sorts of weird facts in the pre-google days. It does still happen, but less and less every year as search engines become ubiquitous and the people who remember that was a thing slowly die off. Still, reference will never completely die. People are always going to come to libraries with weird questions; that's kind of the point.
So why am I calling it extroverted IT? Because that's the primary function. There's the fairly obvious part-- people sometimes need help searching the catalogue or reading e-books. But here's the less obvious part. Myrtle has a new laptop, but she's not sure how to do anything with it and her kids all live hours away. Who's she going to call? Who can help people learn how to use technology? Without many other options, the answer frequently is-- the library.
Think everyone has a cell phone? Ask a public librarian. We know there are still plenty of people without a phone or with a secondhand POS with no sim card. Curious what happens if someone can't remember their gmail password? If you're prepared to deal with a post-traumatic response, ask a public librarian. Have you ever tried to help someone with no available cell phone recover their google account? It would probably save a lot of time if we could just tell them at the start they're SOL. But maybe they can remember the password, and technically there's a reset function that might work in a few days if you're approved.... Fun times when you're dealing with an upset person who can barely type on a good day and has just lost a ton of personally valuable and literally valuable information, probably forever. Think 2-factor authentication is great? It sure is, if you have a second factor. We have a list of free email sites that don't require you to already have an email address or a cell phone. It's hella short. And we took one off cause it was too Russian. Protonmail is a good bet if you can remember passwords. Which is a significant if. Some people just can't. Which is OK if you can save them on your computer. Oh, you don't have one and you have to use public devices all the time? Well, write it down and hope it doesn't get stolen and that you can remember which one is which. (Have you already guessed that sometimes people ask librarians to remember their passwords for them?)
In short, the library also serves as a public IT department, for services and devices it has zero control over.
Whether he's internal or public IT support, Yesod is also going to snap. Though, he will also have access to an abnormality that can affect people outside the library, which is a nontrivial perk. He will use it exclusively on vendors. I am hoping some of his bullets bend space and time to successfully hit whatever asshats decided it was OK to build the entire backbone of library ebook lending on Adobe Fucking Digital Editions, an old ass program with literally zero support. It would seem impossible for them to still be shackled to it in the City, but it also seems impossible that we're still shackled to it now, so I'm pretty sure the ultimate capitalist dystopia couldn't let it die.
Hmm? My specialty? I'm a reference librarian. Why do you ask?
#yesod lor#public library of ruina#library of ruina#bad librarian!!#polite ways to explain what the shift key is#the sheer number of weird printing workarounds i require every shift i s2g

I found the password to the account again. Unfortunately, the budget is still shoestring since our benefactor chose to put the budget somewhere else.
This post is to inform you on various of the syndicate’s that are plaguing Pluveria’s capital city, in part to warn you of these dangerous organizations.
To begin, please familiarize yourself with the color rankings from least to most threatening.
Chartreuse, Indigo, Gold, Crimson, Vantablack
Apologies if the colors are inconsistent on the scale, this website doesn’t really have that sort of customizability.
Our first syndicate in order from weakest to strongest is “Super Heartbreak Choke Slam” which is its actual full official name, stupidly enough. This syndicate specializes in hired hands and killing peoples they do not like. Do not let the Chartreuse ranking fool you, higher ranks within the syndicate are very dangerous individuals, and could not be taken on by some run of the mill good natured brave of heart citizens. They will kill you. Another thing to note is that this syndicate much more than other syndicates remembers the crimes committed against them and will return the favor tenfold. However, the most you could possibly deal with in normal circumstances is the typical goon or two.
Our Second Syndicate is “The Arrable Dream.” The typical citizen of pluveria will most likely never encounter someone from this Syndicate. Those working in the science district or under one of the seven stars may be at risk of an attack from the the syndicate. You see, the deal with The Arrable Dream is that members believe in a complete reset, only wishing to reduce the city to nothing so a natural future can rise from its ashes. Fuck these guys in particular, I hate them more personally than others do.
Our third Syndicate is “The Hangman’s Circus.” To be blunt, there’s something wrong with these freaks, their only goal is to make life worse for everyone else in the city. If you are aware of Hangman Circus activity in your area, let someone from Justice Constilation of the Seven Star’s know immedietly. This Syndicate is of high priority.
Fourth is “The Whale” which unlike other syndicates is not a threat to citizens of any kind unless they are provoked. Another thing to note about the whale is that their operations are mostly water bound, although they do sometimes appear at ports. Please note that they are classified as Gold if they are on land and Crimson if they are in water, even then you won’t have to worry about them unless you garner their ire. They are lead by an individual who goes by “MOB” who is rumored to be one of the strongest most powerful sailors in pluveria.
Lastly, we have a much more recent syndicate that has been appearing in different places is “The Urban Sprawl”. Due to recent events in pluveria regarding a case of a Vantablack Individual Suppression, strange activity of people believing its ideals have been showing up. What’s worse is that people have been “blessed” by the sprawl sacrificing their sense of self in order to work under the sprawl, reports have been saying that those afflicted by the sprawl have any and all color of the skin, have had limbs change into liquid metal, and are also “The urban Sprawl”. All of this can be traced back to the original Urban Sprawl who was composed entirely of Liquid Metal and to quote directly “even if my body is gone I will continue to live as multiple”.
That’s all for today’s post, be on the lookout for people in Syndicates such as these.
Signing off, -P

Got stoned and decided to play minecraft for the first time since last year, and the Byzantine hell it put me through.
First it made me migrate to a Microsoft account. No problem, right? I go through the steps and everything seems like it's working until the page where it asks you to log into Microsoft. I use the email and password for my Mojang account and it keeps saying it's incorrect, and click "Forgot my password". Apparently I already had a Microsoft account associated with this email, probably from when I first got my computer. I go to reset the password and...
It tells ne that my email account is no longer accessible. "You've lost access to your email." I do some googling, and find out that if you don't log into your Microsoft account for two years, it can be rendered inactive and the email address forbidden from being reused. (Probably to prevent scammers reusing people's email addresses?) It tells me I have to either create a new email account or use an alternate one.
Keep in mind I am high at the time.
Luckily I have another email address, so I switch the account to that one and send the password reset link there. I click it, choose a new password, and go to log into Minecraft.
The screen greets me with "Welcome, Mrs nL PacMan X!"
That is not and has never been my username. It gave me a new Xbox Live account (I don't play Xbox) with a randomly-generated username. I change it to something I prefer (and the page has the audacity to tell me "you get one free gamertag change, after that you're gonna have to pay for it") and launch Minecraft, and the home screen is telling me "Buy Java & Bedrock Combined Edition!"
Having no interest in buying a bundle consisting of the version I already have plus a version I don't even want, I look around the screen and find no obvious play button, just "Buy Now!" Turns out you have to go to the Installations tab (rather than the obvious choice of the Play tab) and click Play on the version you already have installed.
Migrate to a Microsoft account, it's easy!

Winston’s First Day: part 3
I will put this onto Ao3 once I reset my password and get into my account! I also like giving a first glimpse here on Tumblr. It feels like I can still edit if needed.
Earlier chapters: https://www.tumblr.com/bixiebeet/718131221788524544/she-waits-for-me
Chapter 3: The Firehouse Tour
Egon slid past Janine and entered the office. He introduced himself and shook Winston’s hand. “Has anyone done a brain scan on you yet?” Egon asked.
Winston panicked until he realized that this must have been a joke. “You guys are real pranksters,” Winston said.
“I’m serious. I’m curious why someone would willingly join a business like this,” Egon said flatly.
Janine raised her eyebrows from behind him. “Not for the pay. But don’t tell Dr. Venkman I said that,” she muttered.
Winston was trying to come up with a good answer when Ray burst into the office. He slammed his Tobin’s Spirit Guide on Peter’s desk. The cover and pages were very worn down. “Sorry it’s a bit rough. We can get you a new copy.”
Egon brushed some potato chip bags off the desk and revealed a pristine copy of the same book. “I’m sure that Peter won’t mind us borrowing this. He didn’t open it once in grad school,” Egon said with a smirk.
Janine dashed back to her desk to take an incoming phone call. Egon and Ray took Winston on a tour of the firehouse, starting with the upstairs. The snacks and refrigerator were open to everyone. Same with the arcade games—they were ready to play anytime, no coins required. Ray and Winston each played a game of pinball, while Egon grabbed a pack of Twinkies to eat later.
The shared bunk room was plain but functional. Ray explained that they’d all lived in furnished apartments at Columbia University before moving into the firehouse. That’s why they didn’t bring much decor with them. (“We were unceremoniously thrown out on our asses thanks to Venkman,” he said. “And it was the best thing that ever happened in my life. Despite being scary as hell.”) They offered to get a new bed for Winston or have him sleep on the firehouse’s pull out sofa. However, he insisted that he’d rather keep his apartment in the Bronx. Even though the subway commute would be long, Winston told himself that it would be nice to have his own space.
Although most of the areas were for common use, Egon’s lab and Ray’s book collection were off limits. These were some of the only spaces with a modicum of privacy—something that felt quite elusive while working and living all in one place. (“This is a 24/7 gig. Even Janine works late. Peter always tells me to escort her home, and he tries to insist that I spend the night. As if I want to sleep on her sofa when I have a perfectly good bed here,” Egon scoffed. Winston silently suspected that Peter wasn’t trying to force Egon to sleep on Janine’s sofa.)
Winston was extremely impressed by what he saw in the lab and makeshift library. Egon had stacks of drawings depicting the various Ghostbuster gadgets. Some items were adapted from existing tech, while others were totally new creations. Moreover, Egon obviously loved building things just as much as he loved drawing them. Winston had worked with a lot of military and construction equipment, but he’d never seen anything quite like Egon’s work.
After playing around with an early neutrona wand prototype, Ray led them over to his books. He had a very unique ordering system and preferred that no one meddle with it. (It was a mix of theme, author, and how many pictures were inside.) But otherwise, anyone could ask to borrow a book at any time. Unlike Egon’s gizmos, none of Ray’s collection had the potential to blast a hole through the ceiling.
Winston tried his best not to get overly excited, even though he felt like a kid in a candy shop. His childhood library paled in comparison to this. Ray had sourced books about spirits, hauntings, and the paranormal from all around the world. He had a whole section dedicated to major cities: Cairo, New York, Tokyo, and more. Ray’s section on London hauntings filled up a whole shelf; he explained that he had studied there and brought home a suitcase full of supernatural reference books. Winston couldn’t wait to start reading.
They continued the tour and passed through the lobby, stopping to ask Janine about ordering Winston’s jumpsuit. Then Ray remembered that he’d left another full ghost trap in the back of the Ecto-1. They grabbed the trap, and the three men went down to the basement.

Old Lady Rant
There so many truly horrific things about this time in the timeline we are living that I find myself inept to wrap my head around any of them. Because I'm ignoring my feelings about the truly horrible things, I am more often annoyed and, yet, objectively, there are more annoying things happening now as well. So here are top five seconds level concerns. Not the worries, but annoying for this week.
Annoying Things
1. The newest scam of emails claiming to be from one of your social media sights and telling you that your account has been compromised. They come with a link to reset. You enter information, and most of us use similar passwords over several sites, and now you've given away that information. I, of course, always checks the email addresses, but they have become better addresses- similar to actual emails. And even if you ignore them you end up with these nagging thoughts wondering if your accounts were actually compromised. Even if you avoid the scam, these emails create a slight hum of anxiety.
2. Fake social media accounts claiming to be celebrities. I made my Instagram private and I have five David Duchovny's request to follow me today. It's better with the account being private but for a while I felt really targeted. Again, that slight hum of background anxiety from using the app.
3. The Twitter/ X situation. When Musk took over and people starting leaving, I feared I would lose my community on this platform. I blogged about it at the time as kind of when an earthquake, Tsunami or something like that destroys your community. My closest group of friends dug in and are still there, but...people today aren't announcing they are leaving, they just stop engaging very often and check in less often. It's less like a Tsunami and more like a gradual decline and slide into irrelevancy. It's a shame. This might be more than annoyance. This might be a sort of grief.
4. There are like 12 cannabis shops in a two mile radius around my apartment. I support recreational cannabis. I indulge. BUT...I don't understand how they are not competing each other out of business and I kind of wish for more variety in walkable businesses near me.
5. I really am sad that the larger WE missed such a great opportunity to learn from the pandemic shut down. I know the pandemic was horrible, BUT...we learned that less human traffick meant environmental improvements, that many positions are done more efficiently remotely, and that there is opportunity for entertainment, education and social connections remotely, Also, do we remember what we missed? Are we appreciating the hug between family members who don't live in the same household, really savoring the random conversation with a stranger, that we are sitting in a movie theater,? Where is the reverence for the simple in person joy? It's like we all just collectively shrugged and said "ok. That happened Next.". To some degree I get it because the things that really worry me needs attending to NOW. Not that they are being attended to....But let's talk about that level of worries on another day.

I literally don't know what the fuck is going on with my PS account because when I got my new ps4 & tried to log in, my password didn't work even though I've literally never changed it. So the cycle goes:
Ps4 either on console or site won't let me log in because it says my password is wrong
I go to "reset password" & I'm sent an email
The email I signed up my Playstation account gets the email, so I know it's the right email & it's still active. I click the link I'm sent
It sends me to "change your password" but first I myst prove it's actually me, by birthday verification. I put in my birthday (which I used for my account & had no reason to change or fake it)
Playstation says my own birthday is incorrect (& I cannot be switching the month/day wrong, because I was born on the 28th, & the "month" scroll tab only goes up to 12 when putting in the dates. I also tried all my family members' birthdays, and none were correct)
There is no other option for a verification, which means I cannot change my own password because Sony thinks my birthday information is incorrect
I go to the bot assistant, which you have to give answers to in order to speak with a live agent for support. It's all good until the bot asks for my email/ Playstation sign in ID (which would be your email), which I give, which the bot then says it "doesn't understand" & keeps asking for my sign in ID & won't let me speak to an agent
I literally don't know what the fuck is going on, I never changed my password, I never logged out of my old ps4 or changed any information, I've tried literally ALL my other passwords I've used and other emails & tried different caps lock options & none of them worked, my email info is correct, and it literally won't let me log into my own account no matter what 😑 has anybody else had this fucking problem bc I literally don't know what to do

How to Recover If Your Facebook Account Is Hacked? Easy Steps
In today's digital age, social media platforms like Facebook have become an integral part of our lives. We use them to connect with friends and family, share our thoughts and experiences, and even conduct business. However, the convenience of social media also comes with security risks, and one of the most common problems users face is having their Facebook account hacked. If you find yourself in this unfortunate situation, it's essential to act quickly to recover your account and secure your personal information.
In this comprehensive guide, we'll walk you through the steps to recover your hacked Facebook account, protect your data, and prevent future breaches.
1. Recognize the Signs of a Hacked Facebook Account
The first step in recovering your hacked Facebook account is to recognize the signs of a compromise. Common indications include:
Unauthorized login notifications: Facebook sends notifications when someone logs into your account from an unfamiliar device or location.
Unusual activity: Strange posts, messages, or friend requests that you didn't initiate.
Changed password or email address: If you can't log in because your password or email address has been changed without your consent, it's a strong indicator of hacking.
Locked out of your account: If you're unable to access your account due to suspicious activity, your account may have been compromised.
2. Immediate Actions to Take
Upon suspecting or confirming a hack, take the following immediate actions:
Change your password: If you can still access your account, change your password immediately. Make it strong by using a combination of upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols.
Log out of other devices: Go to Facebook's Security Settings and log out of all devices to prevent the hacker from continuing to access your account.
Enable two-factor authentication (2FA): Set up 2FA to add an extra layer of security. This usually involves receiving a code on your mobile device that you'll need to enter when logging in.
Check your email account: Ensure that your email account associated with Facebook is secure. Change its password and enable 2FA if you haven't already.
3. Report the Hacked Account to Facebook
To report your hacked account to Facebook, follow these steps:
Go to the Facebook Help Center.
Navigate to the "Security and Login" section.
Click on "I think my account was hacked or someone is using it without my permission."
Follow the on-screen instructions to secure your account and recover it.
4. Recovering Your Hacked Account
Facebook provides a dedicated recovery process for hacked accounts. Follow these steps to recover your account:
Visit the Facebook Account Recovery page.
Enter your email address, phone number, or Facebook username associated with your account.
Follow the instructions to verify your identity. You may be asked to provide a photo ID or answer security questions.
Facebook will guide you through the account recovery process, allowing you to reset your password and secure your account.
5. Check for Unauthorized Activity
Once you regain access to your account, review your activity log for any unauthorized actions, such as posts, messages, or friend requests. Remove any malicious content and unfriend or block suspicious accounts.
6. Strengthen Your Account Security
To prevent future hacks and secure your Facebook account:
Regularly update your password: Change your password at least every six months, and use a unique combination of characters for each platform.
Enable two-factor authentication (2FA): Ensure that 2FA is enabled to provide an extra layer of protection.
Review app permissions: Periodically check which apps have access to your Facebook account and remove any unnecessary ones.
Be cautious with emails and messages: Avoid clicking on suspicious links or providing personal information in response to unsolicited messages.
Educate yourself: Stay informed about common hacking techniques and scams to protect yourself better.
6. Monitor Your Account
Continuously monitor your Facebook account for any unusual activity. Facebook offers features like login alerts, which notify you of any login attempts from unrecognized devices or locations. Stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity promptly.
7. Protect Your Personal Information
Remember that hackers target personal information. Limit the amount of personal data you share on your profile, such as your phone number, address, and birthdate. Adjust your privacy settings to control who can see your posts and personal information.
Conclusion
Recovering a hacked Facebook account can be a stressful experience, but by taking swift and informed action, you can regain control of your profile and protect your data. Follow the steps outlined in this comprehensive guide, and remember to prioritize account security by regularly updating your password, enabling two-factor authentication, and staying vigilant against potential threats. With these precautions in place, you can enjoy the benefits of social media while keeping your personal information safe from hackers.
