A little bit on privacy
I was stunned the other day to find my digital camera had my name in it and each and every photo had my name and my camera details in it's file .
There is a free program called WinHex available from http://www.x-ways.net/
which is interesting when having a look at all files and this one easily moves around the FAT tables etc.
Grab the program , open a jpeg file and have a look
Additionally I use Open Office now because it is free ,is transparent ,uses only a fraction of the space and doesn't put your name in each file like Microsoft office does. Will read and save in Microsoft Office format if you wish.
So whats going on with the .jpeg and .doc files? Who is writing this software that snoops and more importantly why?
Wherever your document or photo files appear ,in court , police, govt offices your name is all over them , careful now, don't ring on your mobile phone theve got all that too !
