Obscure My FootPrint

Understand Your Digital Footprint

Not everyone needs extreme privacy.
Everyone should understand their risk.

Your personal information moves through systems you never signed up for.
For some people, that exposure is low-impact.
For others, it creates real problems.

Start with understanding.

All personal data carries some risk.
The difference is whether that risk is likely to have immediate consequences for you.
Obscure My Footprint helps you figure out which one applies to you.

What is Obscure My Footprint?

Obscure My Footprint exists to explain privacy. We do not sell panic.

Most people know their data is “out there.”
Very few people know what that actually means.

We focus on:

We believe privacy is sound risk management.
Not paranoia.
Not anti-technology activism.

Different people face different risks.
The goal is to understand yours.

Exposure Is Contextual

Your data is not just “out there.”
It is collected, packaged, scored, and reused.

Common Uses

How exposed data gets turned into leverage.

Advertising and profiling

Employment and tenant screening

Harassment and targeting

Location inference

Reputation and risk scoring

Impact Depends On

Why the same leak hits people differently.

Visibility

Role

Adversaries

Consequences of misuse

Different people need different defenses.

The Hostility Index

A Practical Reality Check

The Hostility Index is a short survey. It does not ask:

“How private are you?”

“How bad is your footprint?”

It asks:

Is your data likely to be used against you?

Where does exposure create leverage?

What would actually go wrong if it spread?

The goal is not a score. The goal is clarity.

Sometimes the answer is simple. Sometimes it is complex.

Privacy, but Make It Wearable

Shirts you’ll actually want to wear — clean designs, smart references, good materials.

Some are subtle. Some are a little sharp.

All are original designs, built around privacy culture.

Every shirt sold does a bit of good. One dollar from each purchase goes to a privacy‑focused charity.

It’s about good design — and a cause worth backing.
