What is a digital footprint, and why is it important to you? Think of the internet as a library full of millions of books and other information. When you enter a library to check out a book or find other information, you leave a lot of information about yourself. For example, when you first go to the library, you fill in your name, phone number, email and other details to inform that you have entered the library. Then you start looking for the book you like and take out the required book from the rack. Then read those books in turn. While reading the book, you may have noted important things in the diary. Then you leave the library. By now you've left most of your data inside the library. With the name, email and phone number you give, what kind of book do you like to read, how do you read the page of the book, what important things do you write down in your diary, what kind of information is on your face when you get it, what kind of expression you had on your face before reading
