The internet, emails, cell phones, texting, Whatsapp and networking sites such as Facebook and Instagram, have irrevocably changed the world of communication, by shrinking the former limitless expanse of the world, to make us all closer.

The benefits for life as we know are immeasurable, and most can't imagine a world without these tools, not even those that did not grow up with them.

Networking sites like Facebook and hook-up sites like Tagged and Tinder have opened up a whole new world of opportunities for cheating.

The ability to chat, share and explore each other in cyber space before hooking up has seen many a mediocre, not so good looking nerd, have a virtual feast, because for most, cyber is the preliminary step to real world incursions. But like every other beneficial tool for mankind, it has its drawbacks.

"Hey, it's Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favor. Can you please take your name off your phone? My wife went through my phone and may be calling you. So if you can, please take your name off that. Just have it as a number on the voicemail. You got to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye."

The above quote came from Tiger Woods and it sunk him. Now you are no Tiger, but if he had followed this simple rule, he would not have seen as much trouble as he did.

Tiger's indiscretion cost him his marriage, full custody of his children, and some would argue, his lucrative golfing career. But his punishment pales in comparison to that of Jeff Bezos's, Amazon founder, and world's richest man. His divorce settlement was a reputed 38 Billion dollars...with a B, and despite denials, there are reports that the final nail in their marriage's coffin were text messages and lewd selfies, that Bezos allegedly sent to a TV anchor.

I don't know if the rumours about Bezos are true or not, but I do know that digital evidence is very powerful in court cases. I also know that despite the world's largest divorce settlement, Jeff Bezos's fortune has surged past 200 billion, at the time of writing, the first man to have officially achieved this feat.

The reality however, even if she had gotten half his money, he would still have more money at his disposal, than he could possibly spend in his lifetime. I am guessing this is not the case for the rest of you reading this publication, so I strongly urge you to pay attention to what I have to say on the essence of this matter of technology. Technology rapidly changes, but concepts rarely do.

Buy a pay as you go phone. Buy a sim card. Let one of your hunting buddies buy a phone for you; pay some school kid to go buy a phone for you. Whatever you do, remember the golden rule is deniability. So the greater your ability to do such, the better your chance of implanting doubt.

Use fake email, and social media accounts. Do not send nudes or videos, especially if you have distinctive genitalia. Your primary doesn't need to recognize your face, as others do, all she needs to do is recognize the curve of your Dick, or that mole on your nutsack, and it's game over.

But to get back to Tiger, he did more than violate this rule; he beat it to a pulp, as if it was a fellow golfer on the pro circuit.

NEVER, NEVER, leave your voice on anything. In the past, this rule would have been, never sign any cards and stuff. Reason being, it narrows the possibility of it being you from many – 1, to 1 – 1.

The greater your ability to say it was that guy's phone or it's not even in my name – the better your chance of living to fight another day.

This reminds me. A very good get out of jail card would be a hallmark card signed by one of your rivals from work, addressed to your OW. This is in case of attacks from him, her, the vultures, and even the angry spouse.
