  1. Researchers have warned that we will be more easily forget the information we can get from our cell phones, such as the important numbers of our family, a person's address or even important dates. Scientists say, Digital Amnesia is the result of adaptation of our brain where information can easily get as mobile phones and the Internet are always available and easily accessible. Security firm Kaspersky Lab said "The connected device did help our daily lives, but they also lead to the emergence of Digital Amnesia in our brain. ' As a consumer, it is important for us all to understand the long term implications of this effect, and why we need to be diligent in view of the information and protect memories and our precious memories. Kaspersky Lab conducted a study of 1,000 consumers in the United States consisting of age 16 years and over and found signs of Digital Amnesia found in all age groups and both men and women equal. The survey resulted that 91 percent of consumers recognize their dependence on the internet and smartphones as a means to store information or retrieve information and become a kind of additional memory of their brains. These findings also indicate that our inability to save important information is due to the fact that we hand over responsibility to remember to a digital device. Almost half (44%) of survey participants said that their smartphones to store almost everything they needed to know or recall. It is not surprising that the research conducted by Kaspersky Lab also found that the loss or compromise of data stored on digital devices and smartphone in particular, will make many users overwhelmed. More than half (51%) of female respondents and nearly the same amount of users aged 25 to 34 years (49%) will be overwhelmed with grief that hit because they have memories stored on their devices they believe memories will not return when the device is damaged or missing. A quarter of female respondents and 35% of respondents of young people (16-24) will panic: the device they are the only place where they store pictures and contact information.
