What is signal? Today this word can be heard during conversations with people or found on the Internet. However, not everyone still knows the true meaning of this term.
In this article, we will explain what a signal means and when it is appropriate to use it.
What does signal mean and how is it done
A signal is a photograph of a person with some kind of inscription (on the body, paper, clothes) used on the Internet to confirm the identity of a person, as an autograph of a celebrity, or as a sign of love for a celebrity by a fan, etc.
In fact, a signal is any attribute related to the person for whom the signal is made. But what is it for?
Today, on the Internet, you can stumble upon hundreds of thousands of fake accounts on social networks and other resources. For example, a user wants to get acquainted with Alla Pugacheva's web page on an Internet site.
However, when he types the singer's name into the search bar, he is presented with dozens or even hundreds of pages with Alla Pugachevs. Naturally, a person does not know how to determine the real account of the prima donna and whether it exists at all.
Signa is asked to do exactly as proof of the correspondence between the photo and the real face of the host of the page. It is worth noting that the sign does not mean an ordinary photo, but one that would allow unambiguously to draw an equal sign between it and the web page.
In such a picture, a person, for example, can hold a piece of paper on which his ID-address will be written. Alternatively, the resource owner can simply write the real ID in a marker on his arm or other body part. Interestingly, the word "signal" is derived from the English "sign", which means - signature.
Therefore, if you see that Pugacheva or any other person you are interested in is depicted with a "signature", you can verify the authenticity of his account.
