Radio talk show hostess Kim Komando recently researched the shopping app Temu. She says her research set off some alarms and warns the public to be cautious if they are using this China-based company. Seemingly overnight, everyone’s talking about Temu (pronounced “tee-moo”), an online shopping app that boasts deals that seem too good to be true, like $17 wireless earbuds, $1 “gold” necklaces, and $23 wedding dresses. Over 50 million Americans have downloaded Temu since it launched state-side in September 2022, after it gained traction with expensive Super Bowl ads promising to let you “shop like a billionaire.” Today, Temu...

I don't have a komando.com account but I listen to her show every week on AM radio. If someone does have a komando.com account, please post a transcript of her show [it played in my locale on 9/2/2018] where she starts off saying that her show has never been political and then starts on an anti-Trump rant.She pretends that she believes that Trump's recent tweets are anti-First Amendment and that Google is not suppressing free-speech. (and if Google is doing so, it's not a problem because Google is a private company and not "the government" thus not a problem)

Do you ever feel like you're being watched? In the past, you could chalk it up to paranoia, close the curtains and get on with your life. Thanks to technology, it's not just your imagination. You really are being watched in your home, at work and everywhere in between. From online advertisers and hackers to the NSA and other government agencies, everyone is trying to keep tabs on you. And things keep getting worse. If you think you know every gadget and organization that's a danger, think again. Here are three things spying on you that you probably didn't know...

Did you know that an estimated $41.7 billion - billion - is currently held in government unclaimed-property programs? Some of that unclaimed money could be yours.-advertisement- Sound like a scam? It isn't, although some scam companies and individual scammers will try to charge you fees to recover it. Warning: If someone asks for a fee to search for unclaimed money, don't pay. It's a free search. Before I tell you how to find your unclaimed money, though, here's how it gets unclaimed in the first place.

If there's one guarantee on the Internet, it's that there will be no shortage of security concerns on Facebook. Facebook invades your privacy, uses you in ads, misuses your Likes and could cost you your job. That's only counting threats from Facebook itself! Since it has more than a billion members, it only makes sense that hackers and scammers would target Facebook. People spend hours on the site and reveal all sorts of private information. That only makes a criminal's job easier.

When you surf the Internet, everyone is watching... Well, it's not as hard as you may think to browse anonymously and preserve your privacy. All you need are a few tools and some coaching in covert ops. That's where I come in. Just call me Komando...Kim Komando...

On Thursday, March 1, I began receiving a series of complaints from both listeners to The Kim Komando Show and non-listeners, concerning on-air comments made by Rush Limbaugh about Georgetown University Law Student Sandra Fluke and Ms. Fluke's comments. In this instance, everyone is clearly within his or her Constitutional rights. It's all part of the First Amendment, but sometimes free speech isn't pretty, in good taste or well chosen. With all this said, I know that some of the comments directed at me have come from long-time listeners to my program. I appreciate them all. But many others are...

Symantec, Windows users beset by Vista SP1 flaws By Tom Espiner, ZDNet UK Monday, March 24, 2008 10:56 AM Security vendor Symantec has said that updated drivers to replace those adversely affected by Windows Vista Service Pack 1 are not yet available.

Ooops! We all make mistakes. But some mistakes are bigger than others. Here's an example--when a newspaper prints incorrect information. Newspapers frequently run corrections and retractions. But you usually have to search for them. Well, Regret the Error lists corrections, retractions and clarifications printed in newspapers around the country. It also includes a short commentary. Sometimes the mistakes are humorous. But I [Kim Komando] don't visit the site to gloat over others' mistakes. I read it because it makes me feel a little better about some of the mistakes I've made.
