緊急提醒!千萬不要再曬登機牌了!
This what happens if you share your flight details on Facebook
如果在臉書上分享你的航班信息，會出現什麼後果?It's become a well-known rule for social media: do not post your address, your passport, and, more recently, an image of your boarding pass online.
這成爲社交媒體上一條衆所周知的準則：不要將你的地址、你的護照、最重要的是--你的登機牌--曬到網上。The reason for this is because the two-dimensional barcodes and QR codes located on your passport can be used for a variety of nefarious reasons.
原因就是你護照上的二維碼和QR碼可能會被不法分子用於各種各樣的非法活動中。
Steve Hu from went a step further, and decided to see exactly how much information he could gather about a person using just the details on a boarding pass.
Iflyflat網站的史蒂夫·胡深入探索，他想知道，僅通過登機牌，能獲取一個人的多少信息?And it's frightening. It's very frightening.
結果很恐怖，真的相當恐怖！
After logging on to Delta Airlines using the information on the example boarding pass, he was easily able to gain access to the person's account. This meant he had access to:
在使用一張樣本登機牌登錄達美航空公司的網站後，他輕鬆進入了個人中心。這意味着他可以獲得：The passenger's personal details, including name;The passenger's itinerary; where they were going to be travelling and when, Seat number, Frequent flier details, Break down of the fare paid, The date the ticket was purchased, Last four digits of the bank card used.
包括乘機人的名字在內的個人信息；乘機人的出行計劃；他們何時去何地旅遊過；座位號；乘機習慣；費用細節；訂票日期；銀行卡的後4位數字等。Okay, but what about if you really want to brag about your holiday; can you post a partial image of your boarding pass?
好吧，那如果你真的很想炫耀下你的度假計劃，只曬出登機牌的一角可不可以?The short answer is: no.
答案是：不行。Hu used an image from social media, in which a passenger had inadvertently posted the barcode, despite trying to hide some of it with their thumb.
胡使用了網上的一張圖片，圖上是一位乘客無意中曬出了二維碼，儘管她試圖用拇指遮擋住部分信息。Not only can he get all the above information just from the barcode, but there are computers and other devices which can easily read the information.
不僅能從二維碼上獲取這些信息，電腦和其他的設備還能輕而易舉讀出這些信息。So if you insist on inciting holiday envy, take a picture of your legs dangling in the resort's pool, not your boarding pass.
所以如果你還是堅持想曬出讓人眼紅的假期，拍一張游泳池中秀美腿的圖片吧，可別再曬登機牌了。
