	* There is, in my opinion, illegal share of private information between companies. For example, some time ago I had received a voicemail from a debt collection agency. Trouble was, it was in the name of my friend, with whom I do not share mailing address or any other legal documents. They only link we had between us were phone conversations. Therefore, the debt collection agency illegally obtained my friend's phone number transcripts, and illegally attempted to extract the debt from everyone my friend spoke with.		* There is, in my opinion, illegal share of private information between companies.

			Ask yourself the following questions:

			* Why does every company, even ones that sell software only digitally, require my real name, address, and phone number?
			* How can servers be allowed to keep IP logs?
			* Why do email companies/isps link IP addresses to real people so readily?


			Solutions that you must research:

	~~online privacy violations:~~		* How to surf anonymously
			* Services like email that do not ask for personal details, do not log users, nor provide or collect any personal information on request to anyone, not even law enforcement.
			* Always provide fake data unless you are required by law to disclose your real identity

	~~# how can servers be allowed to keep ip logs?~~
	~~# why the hell do email companies/isps link ip addresses to real people so readily?~~

	~~solutions:~~		Here is something that I practice, and you should as well. When giving out my last name anywhere on the Internet, I truncate
			the last name, and affix the name of the entity that is asking for my information. That way a) if my data becomes public, it is not searchable by the exact term, b) I can track how my information was sold and resold. The USPS will still deliver the package to my door as it will match good enough for a human to understand.

	~~# list all of the above online~~ and ~~make sure they get the message~~		For example, if my last name were Spears, and I was shopping on amazon (for sanity, perhaps), I would give out my last name as
	~~# provide info~~ on ~~how to surf anonymously~~		Spear_amazon
	~~# provide services like email that do not ask~~ for ~~personal details~~, ~~do not log users~~, ~~nor provide or collect any personal information on request to anyone, not even law enforcement.~~
	~~# tell people to provide fake data when they feel so~~
	# release a law for all companies to periodically tell every person what info they have on them, and provide the capability to delete/edit that data. the law will also apply for data like credit history, online stores, email providers, etc. also set mandatory longest period of time after which personal data must be wiped (ie annually)
