Reduce Your Digital Footprint: Trackers, Brokers and Posts
£50.00
Search your own name with your town added, in a private window. For most people something comes back that they never agreed to publish. An address. An age. A list of relatives.
Four sources keep adding to that record: the trackers that watch you browse, the brokers that assemble and sell it, the posts you publish yourself, and the ones your household publishes about you. Two of the four happen whether you participate or not, which is why nobody notices them starting.
Each source has to be handled twice. Closed, so nothing more is added, then cleared, so the old record comes down. Doing only the first leaves everything standing. Doing only the second means it fills back up.
What is inside
- Four sources, each closed and then cleared, in that order
- An annotated exhibit: one ordinary holiday post with six tells numbered
- Four ladders covering browsers, exposure, audience and household approach
- The exact opt-out wording that gets broker removals processed, not ignored
- A timed two hour session, eight self-tests, and eight field forms
When you close the file
- All four sources closed, so nothing new is being added about you
- Broker removals submitted and dated, not merely intended
- Your posts set to the audience you actually meant
- Thirteen CORE rows closed, in ninety-five minutes of real work
The format
30 pages, delivered as a downloadable PDF the moment you order. Read it on any device or print it at home. The eight field forms in Annex A are designed to be printed and written on.
Budget three hours to read and work it end to end. Two hours of that is a timed working session you follow live, and 95 minutes of that is the CORE work that closes the file.
Who it is for
Stands alone. No earlier file required, and nothing to install. Covers the household, including children's devices, without turning it into surveillance.
File 04 of 5 in the GhostNet series. Each file stands on its own, and the five together cover the whole of everyday digital security. Privacy Is Power.
