Whatever you publish in one way or the other is leaving traces of your life & preferences in web. Don't think that deleting what you posted will solve the issue. It's already on google.Google is e.g. working on a software for (among others) "seeing devices" and has entered the mobile phone business (developping them). Now you may say - what's wrong with that?Well, if used properly, you may visit Florence in Italy and while standing in front of Palazzo di Medici scan the building front with your mobile. The reportedly planned interaction with google will send you explanations from e.g. wikipedia on who the Medici were, when they lived and what else is worth visiting on your tourist tour in Florence. Fine solution saving tons of travel pocket books.You may also think of scanning a person's face with your mobile - sending it to google and google will check in the same way whether they find any data in their database. It may turn out that they scan google images, find a photo that fits, check facebook for the address and social friends, family data, employer, latest CVs, bank accounts, internet preferences (don't download google chrome or add the google toolbar), check google maps and send the results where the person is living back on your mobile. This was discussed early this year and google has no issues with their activities in this.Whatever you send into web will be stored there. Google does not delete collected data.Google is the most powerful existing data base on earth. Who has data access? Who is behind google?Additional data connections may follow. Your telephone and internet connections are open as a book since it is all digitally stored. Your financial data are available from your online banking and digital credit card. Your home may be supervised without you knowing via digital devices (check them for microphones). Your daily movements may be supervised via your mobile phone wandering from cell to cell.The only temporarly existing issue with all the available data is still that interacting connections are not easy to set up. Data volume is so immence that there are most likely no devices available today that are capable to manage data interconnections of all areas mentioned above. While the superpower data centers are most likely not yet available today this does not mean nobody is working on them.It is interesting that forces are now directed into reducing conventional weapons on the globe when the danger with most effects on our lives actually is concerning information.Don't publish your personal data in the web.Don't even publish "I am a week on vacation". There are enough cases of people to have found their home ravaged when returning - because they left their address with their joy in the web.Be careful in the web as always when you meet a stranger.Be careful what you allow others to know about yourself.If you don't want to be traced down, throw as many digital devices and applications as possible out of your life. This goes especially to the younger folks in here that are so unconditionally fond of all the new toys.
