Digital Deeds Never Die
Unless you work for the National Security Agency,
you'll never be sure that digital record you created is gone, truly gone, no
matter how hard you try to delete it. That failed relationship that played out
in e-mail -- still out there somewhere. That blog rant you're typing? It will be
around when the plastic in your keyboard has dissolved into slush. Like an
impulse tattoo, expressing an opinion online may seem like a good idea today,
but it has every prospect of embarrassing you 20 years from
now.
