Ever wonder how many trails of personal information you've left behind and what this information is used for?

    • I don't do nine tenths of this, I leave no digital trail. I use no cell-phone, no magnetic membership cards, no credit card - I go to the bank and take out the money I need to do my shopping, so what I have bought cannot be traced to me. I have a year pass for public transportation which is not a digital gimmick - when there are checks, I just have to show it. No trace of what bus or tram I took, where I got on or off. I also walk a lot.

    • being UNABLE to watch these online is a bloody pain in the butt.

      what''s the bloody point of CurrentTV presenting me a slideshow of a show I can''t watch?

      if I wanted to watch TV, I would.

      no embedding?

      bah! this service is losing appeal.

    • Paranoia much? This is kinda wierd, it's like that book by George Orwell where the government's got cameras everywhere and is spying on the public.

    • I made this pod as a VC2 Producer for Current before I started here as a full-time AP in the Acquisitions department. The pod was part of an investigative fellowship called the "News 21" project. Check out this INTERACTIVE FLASH project I made to go with the pod. You can follow-up on each one of Brooke's "Digital Trails" and see where her personal information is actually going, who is looking at it and how the government is accessing it.
