    Do you have one ? I have no facebook, no twitter, no instagram etc.

    No links to me if I google my real name.

    In a roundabout way I'm easy to find, but I don't use my real name on either of my social networking profiles, so you'd have to know the fake name I use. Just Googled my real name and can't find anything that links to me so I guess the fake name thing kinda worked.

    I have a Facebook so I do have a digital footprint.
    But the crazy reality is that, for example, a person who doesnt have a facebook or any other social media account can have a digital footprint. As a person can get tagged in photos. Also, add in a location and it's even a bigger footprint.

    But I find the biggest digital footprint out there is a persons username.
    Names like "heckler" and even mine are generic. But when someone starts being creative and uses them on mulitiple websites? you might as well be giving all away :p

    If anyone is actually interested in googling me I think they have far gone past the stage of help. I am not that interesting.
