My digital footprint.

I think that I know what a digital footprint is. I think it’s like whenever you connect with something media –like, computers, telephone, cellphones or TV is leaving a digital footprint. Personally I think that having a digital footprint is scary but also useful in some situations. For instance if you were kidnapped in the woods somewhere or in a old abounded house the police could use the GPS on your phone and follow you to where you are. Now that I know what an digital footprint is I will be thinking more about it. When I Google my name I found an old MySpace face of mine that I forgot about and bunch of stories about Facebook and twitter. I liked it because no negative stuff came up. I didn’t really disagree with anything because not many posts about me came up. But there was a picture of me that I posted years ago and its on there even though I deleted it. I actually did like the website where you found out what your digital footprint is. I scored 12. It said I have a low footprint. To be honest I think it’s a little creepy when it showed you all the info about cellphones and TVs. I feel like I’m going to be paranoid. Anyway that’s what I think about my digital footprint.
