[QUOTE="Predrag Radjenovic, post: 719374, member: 51874"] Nice one, thanks for the suggestion! I agree, it is hard to find. On the other hand, this is not just about the data that you have a choice about whether you upload them or not. Take fingerprints for example - every device tied to every account has it's corresponding fingerprint - we don't have to have implants and chips in our skin, we carry them voluntarily. And they are more convenient for us to use than passwords and pins, they are more secure but there's always a catch, no? It's all about trading a bit more of your privacy for a (false?) sense of security, as late George Carlin would say. edit: grammar [/QUOTE]
