Uncle Sam is something of a big data freak and likes to keep all the data to himself just in case he needs to check in on some suspicious activity that may or may not have happened anytime in the last eight years. Or so I hear. Today let’s all give up a bit of our own privacy.
Hand over your data in image form. A screen capture or photo of your latest text message, the last picture you uploaded to Facebook, the last direct message from Twitter, you get the idea. The jackbooted thugs already have your data so why not show us a little of it?
- How to take an iPhone (or iDevice) screenshot.
- How to take an Android screenshot.
Once you have the screenshot you need to get it onto an image hosting site but ideally you would edit out the things you actually don’t want us to see first. Many phones have built in photo editors and if not you can download any of the gazillion apps that will let you edit pics. Once it’s saved you can email it to yourself for upload from a computer or use an image uploader directly from your phone.
I’ve used the Imgur uploader recently with good success. For Android and iPhone. Once it’s uploaded copy the HTML code and paste it into the comment box here.
