Answer:

Explanation:

There are various safety features in place to prevent such scenarios from happening. For starters phones usually have a pin code, pattern code, or fingerprint scanner which prevents unauthorized individuals from entering into the phone's services. Assuming that these features have been disabled by the phone's owner, payment applications usually require 2FA verification which requires two forms of approval such as email approval and fingerprint scanner in order for any transactions to go through. Therefore, an unauthorized individual would not have access to such features and would not be able to complete any transactions.

Type the correct answer in the box. Spell all words correctly. What allows users to make long-distance calls over the Internet?

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Voice over internet protocol (VoIP)

Explanation:

It is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line.

VoIP services convert your voice into a digital signal that travels over the Internet. If you are calling a regular phone number, the signal is converted to a regular telephone signal before it reaches the destination. VoIP can allow you to make a call directly from a computer, a special VoIP phone, or a traditional phone connected to a special adapter. In addition, wireless "hot spots" in locations such as airports, parks, and cafes allow you to connect to the Internet and may enable you to use VoIP service wirelessly.
