Does anyone else find it scary that to register to use the Wetpaint network you have to declare your date of birth? OK, anyone can give a false date but why ask for it in such detail in the first place?
The casual giving away of bits of our personal data for no good reason - especially on social networking sites - seems plain crazy. Why not give me a tick box to declare to the owners that I am legally able to vote, have sex, drink in a pub and log on to their website? My local junior school recently sought parents' permision to have our child's fingerprint taken so they could use it to withdraw books from the library. Jeez, did we say no, or did we say no? Or am I just being an old fogie?
