Practical Privacy: How to Keep Your Life…and Your Personal Information…Out of the Public Information Marketplace
Personal financial data has become the most sought-after asset in the information economy. Crooks want this data–but they’re not the only ones, as Internet marketers use personal information almost as aggressively by selling the personal information of their customers.

I bought this book expecting practical guidelines on specific actions I could take to remove my personal information from databases. I found instead a history lesson on privacy with a handful of generic tips.
It offers 10 tips for Internet privacy, which is what I was most interested in. These tips include “Pay by credit or charge card,” “Don’t e-mail financial information,” “keep your anti-virus software running and up-to-date,” and “get an anti-spyware program.”
This book provides a wealth of information about all kinds of intrusions of privacy, but little actionable guidance on what to do about it.
