Content preview

“Every time we perform a search, tweet, send an email, post a blog,
comment on one, use a cell phone, shop online, update our profile on
social networking site, use a credit card, or even got to the gym, we leave
behind a mountain of data, a digital footprint, that provides a treasure
trove of information about our lifestyle, financial activities, health habits,
social interactions, and much more.” - Frank Moss
