My Life With IT

Every move you make is being monitored. Sometimes I wonder why I am still online or using so many gadgets. Our privacy is no longer in our hands. Even applying for contests online need you to fill in your NRIC number that is supposed to be highly confidential. Physical contest forms also require NRIC number. And I thought we were supposed to protect the number at all costs?

At which stage do we draw the line where our most intimate details are not supposed to be given out just like that? Why can’t I just give you my name and contact number? You call me when I’m the winner? Isn’t that easier? I can submit more entries this way and save me time in filling up the forms.
