"Digital technology has made it easier than ever to treat people like domesticated animals farmed for profit. You can no longer rent a car or a hotel room or buy much of anything without a credit card, which leaves a digital trail wherever it goes. You're told you need a social security card, a health card, a driver's licence, a bank card, a bunch of passwords. You need an 'identity', and that identity is digital."
"All your numbers and passwords - all the data that identifies you - is supposed to be private, but as we know by now, the digital world leaks like a sieve, and security on the internet is only as good as the next mastermind hacker or inside-job data thief." (Margaret Atwood - "We are double-plus unfree")
