I am using the word "slums" to make a point about WHY people lock their
devices when it means they're deathly afraid of everyone around them.

I care about privacy as much as the next person cares about privacy.
And I care about security too.

But I don't lock my devices because I'm not afraid of the people who have
physical access to them. Only people who live in abject fear lock them.

NY is the slums. So, sure, I'll lock my car in NY but at home, I don't live
in the slums so when my car is parked in my driveway, the windows are open.

Only people who live in slums need to lock their computers every second.
That's because they don't trust anyone who lives in their own home.

Thanks. I never heard of CGNAT before but my IP address is not a private
address so I guess I'm normal - although I'm on a WISP but it's the same.

Thanks.

Back to the topic, I installed TeamViewer but there are so many variations,
I'm not sure which variation is the one for what I want to do with my PC.

All I want to do is share my PC with someone on a mobile device such that
the person on the mobile can see my screen & operate the cursor & keys.

Which TeamViewer is that?


https://www.teamviewer.com/en-us/download/windows/

1. TeamViewer QuickSupport (If you want to receive support:)
2. TeamViewer full client (If you want to provide support)
3. TeamViewer Host (If you want to set up unattended access to a device)
4. TeamViewer MSI Package (If you want to mass deploy TeamViewer)
5. TeamViewer Meeting (If you want to join or start a meeting)

Which of those allows a mobile device to see my screen and operate the
mouse and keyboard so that they can do stuff with an account on my PC?
