When was the last time you changed your cell phone number? Most of us hold onto our number for years and we give it out every time we sign up for a service, make a dinner reservation, or check into a hotel. Companies know that a cell number is more valuable than an email address. Therefore many systems now send you a one-time code sent via a text message before allowing you to complete your reservation or get online. This is a major privacy issue and a goldmine for marketers, scammers, and data brokers. After all we are not going to change our number often so it can be used to track our activities online and in the real world. That's when I found Cloaked and I partnered with them to test their digital identity system. The system allows you to generate unique cell numbers and email addresses for anything which means you get to keep your personal information private. I was horrified to see just how my info was being sold after I left Europe - check out what happened here: https://lnkd.in/eme7vSgY
