This is really surprising and disturbing, I think a lot more than 60% of the people don't know this.

yeah its serious. I have known about them for a long time thats why i make copies myself and give those to the people who need them.  They just put into my file.  Control of personal information is ultimately in our hands. Cause no one else cares as much about your personal info as much as you do.

Another little thing that most people don't know is that every time you print something on your printer, it puts your computer serial number, name and software serial number everything needed to identify you on the page.  You can't see it without a magnifying glass but its there.

Thanks for a heads-up on this, Frank.... hope I can sleep tonight.  :'(
