Are hackers are going to freeze my Internet connection?

It is improbable that a hacker will simply "freeze" your internet. Almost all hacks target your devices or your data, not your connection.

Yes, hackers can disrupt or freeze your internet connection using methods like Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, router exploits, or malware. They overload your network or manipulate your hardware/software settings. Protecting your network with strong passwords, updated firmware, and firewalls can significantly reduce this risk.
