Recently, I've seen friends in the community discussing security topics, and suddenly realized there are some details we really need to pay attention to. Even though I don't have a lot of assets, it's always wise to stay vigilant. Here are a few practical tips:
Don't casually choose a meeting location. It's best to meet at open spaces like a café in a mall—never take the shortcut of meeting directly at a hotel lobby. I've heard of people who just went downstairs for a drink and woke up in a hotel room—truly terrifying when you think about it.
Only consume drinks you have control over. Someone offers you a drink they've ordered in advance? Just refuse. It's always better to be cautious these days.
SIM cards revealing your location is a blind spot. Physical SIM cards can be used for real-time tracking. If you want to protect your privacy, consider switching to an eSIM—this is also one reason many people prefer non-Chinese versions of iPhones.
The most important tip: **Keep a low profile and don’t show off.** The principle of not flaunting your wealth is even more relevant in the digital era. Safety first—take care, everyone.
