We sometimes hear it said that each of us is now leaving digital footprints as we go through our daily affairs, using our credit card here, our debit card there, our air miles card in this store, our point card in another.But is there any valid reason to be concerned?

yes... anywhere in which you've swiped your card the computer could have captured that information and use it to run up your bill... do you trust the guy behind the counter at 7-11 making minimum wage from recording that information and going on an on-line shopping spree?
The more proliferated it becomes the more careless people are being. now you have your ssn in at least 20 different computers, ready to be hacked into at any time by either external or internal theieves. (think about it... every employer you've ever had has it... every loan you've ever applied for - including credit cards has it. every doctor you've visited for billing purposes. your insurance company, your tax attorney, your drivers license is now linked to it, The IRS. it is actually recorded that the FBI gets 7 hack attempts an hour, Boeing lost several hundred thousand of records with financial information on a single laptop. MSN has had their credit card database hacked. AOL has had their credit card database stolen. how safe do you really feel giving your personal/financial information to complete strangers? Do you also give them keys to your house? be concerned. be careful.

We need not worry about digital and modern technology. Those who don`t violate law have nothing to fear.
