12+ years ago, I had an awakening. A PI I hired to track someone down for me, did so in about two weeks without ever leaving his office. I got the new address I was looking for, and a full report, all for $100 USD. That report had the names of 40 + people, including SSN, and DOB based on the fact they had a common address with this guy I was searching for. My data was in that report.

Now I take a moderate approach to everything, from registering on sites, to using the latest smart phone technologies.

What do you do to protect your privacy?
