http://newtoonsontheblog.info/screens-for-life I often write about and think about how we consume media on the “ screens of life ” – this is such a better illustration than I every together – thanks @BECKintl But it does miss the 7th, the dark screen! https://www.mydigitalfootprint.com/2010/03/the-six-screens-of-life-become-7-mdfp.html

http://www.bcs-issg.org.uk/events.html#Privacy_Day BCS ISSG Privacy Day Wednesday 1st December 2010.  To be held at the BCS London Offices, Southampton Street, London. Back by popular demand!  This will be the third “Privacy Day” organised by the ISSG.  It seems that the topic has not gone away.  However, it has evolved.  This year, there will be no discussions on the National ID Card Scheme; some of you may miss this 'hardy annual'. Privacy is still a major issue and this year we will be considering the reaction of society to privacy concerns, some interesting ideas about the relationship between privacy and the internet, the privacy implications of cloud computing and we will also be returning to the EnCoRe project looking at the giving and revocation of consent for use of personal data. A provisional list of speakers and registration information are available on the next event page.

I am speaking at mLife this week in Brighton and will be addressing “The Uniqueness of mobile”  Abstract : There is no such thing as a mobile strategy or a social media strategy or a digital strategy: there is only strategy.  Having a sexy phone in physical form or thousands of applications is not going to make anyone a winner!  Whilst not having them means you cannot compete, trust and understanding of the Uniqueness of Mobile in a multi-screen world is key to differentiation, segmentation, margin, growth and survival. Keywords: uniqueness of mobile, multi-screen, trust, reputation, identity, digital footprint, survival, growth, competition, strategy Outline proposition is that FREE is an exchange for you data, as companies use your data to create a 'new business model' this exchange is about our definition of privacy web data is the current FREE model Mobile provides data that the web companies cannot get, this is why Google has woken up to the fact the Mobi

What is interesting about this story is how criminals obtain your data - mostly from physical evidence (aka Erasing David )  and when you look at the advice below it has the same.  However this also relates to my suggestion of New Social Rules for engaging in a digital world - worth reflecting on rules 1, 4, 7, 9, 16, 26 and 30 http://www.attorneygeneral.gov.uk/nfa/WhatAreWeSaying/NewsRelease/Pages/identity-fraud-costs-27billion.aspx New figures from the National Fraud Authority [NFA] estimate that every year in the UK identity fraud costs more than £2.7billion and affects over 1.8million people. [18 October 2010] At least £1.9billion of this is the amount gained by the fraudster. That means that on average, fraudsters gain over £1,000 from every stolen identity. Stolen identities are used by fraudsters to obtain a wide variety of goods, services and benefits in the victims' name; to fraudulently open bank accounts and to commit other frauds.

PeekYou is a people search engine has launched PeekScore, a free application that sizes everyone’s "digital footprint" And the problem..... is If like me your phone/utility bills are in your full name rather than your adopted shortened name - if you have one name, spelt the same everywhere then the results may have resemblance to reality PeekScore is a rank from 1 to 10, assigned to every person. The higher someone’s score, the “more important” they are on the web. PeekYou calculates PeekScore for every person and updates it often, taking into account the person’s known presence and activity on the Internet, including but not limited to their blogging, participation in social networks, number of friends, followers, or readers, the amount of web content they create, and their prominence in the news and blogs.
