The Internets is like your old grandmother's very expensive set of bone china. It costs a lot, but do you really know where it came from or how it was made? Since it's yours and probably an heirloom, you should look after it. It's much the same with the Internets.
Did you know that bone china is actually made of bone? I know that some of you don't believe me, but a quick Google will set you straight. And like bone china, not everything that you see is actually as it appears.
Bone china is usually made of bovine bonery, but a little known fact is that some bone china was actually made of human bones. For some, that would be a nasty surprise!
So it is with the Internets and its security. What you think, and what is actually true, are often two different things. That's why you should buy and use your own Internets, and buy and milk your own cow.
But I'm getting off topic. Imagine, if you will, that the Internets is a lovely bone china tea cup. It can be full of the most delicious teas ever! Sweet, mild and fruity, black or green; enjoyed as is, or add some milk or cream. So many ways to prepare and enjoy! It's a wonderful adventure, starting at the rim and working your way inside, to the bottom.
On your journey to the finish, will it be everything you expect? Will there be tea leaves clinging to the bottom of the cup, or something else? Who prevents you from drinking something yucky? The computer geeks call it security. Tea drinkers call her mom. So mom is security. And if your mother is no longer here, you'd best buy some security before you suck up motor oil or bugs from your lovely bone china cup!
