I've been digging into web security, how our info is captured and used, and this is only from the supposed white hats - like google, apple, microsoft, facebook, twitter, et al. With the amount of internal memos leaked, the drive of most of these "private" companies blocking conservative views and voices this article does not surprise me.
I've added the DuckDuckGo chrome extension to help block "ad leaks, aka: trackers", am looking into private VPN and TOR setup for my wife and I and start the trek into shrinking my net footprint. Think stealth aircraft and radar.
What are all ya'll doing to shrink your footprint?

To be honest- not much. My PII has been breached at work on the medical side, the technician side, the insurance side, and from an outside entity that services some of our payroll. They buy us a year's worth of crappy web protection to make it look like they are very caring. Then it happens again. Four times in six years that they know of.... so I reduce my foot print at home. Someone still has my SSN, b-date, employer, employee numbers, insurance info, etc. When I retire, my footprint will be so small it will be Netflix streaming.

Remember, that is only the low grade crappy hackers that got caught. The good hackers that do not get caught have your stuff also. (Equal opportunity of hackers!)

Notified today my DTS was breached. Thousands were. Got our Travel Card info. Gov't and Citibank are going to give me some limited crap protection.

Thank you SSgt (Join to see) for posing an intriguing question.
Since I was terminated from employment on June 30, 2013 I am mentioning home security which I take seriously.
I have a couple firewalls, and a couple security program suites, change passwords on social networks that are insecure such as Facebook and Google. I never use Google to post anything and I use Facebook for birthday greetings and congratulations. [a week ago, I learned that I supposedly logged into Facebook 100 miles away from where I am. I deleted that and changed my password]
I use LinkedIn to congratulate connections and to accept connection from people I am sure about.
Thanks for mentioning me, my friend Maj Marty Hogan
