How To Increase Your Digital Footprint

Introduction

When using the internet, you may occasionally come across articles like this: “How To Reduce Your Digital Footprint”. But have you ever considered the opposite – how we can purposely increase it? In this article, we will explore several ways in which you can effectively boost your digital footprint. Do these, and you will become a pro digital-footprinter.

1. Increase the risk of getting hacked

If you have 2-step verification turned on, you must disable it right now. Disabling the 2-step verification increases the chance of getting hacked, which might lead to your personal information being leaked, which is essential if you want to increase your footprint. I also recommend using simple passwords like “abc” or “1234”. (Remember to use the same password for all websites)

2. Register to suspicious scam emails

When using the internet, we frequently receive scam emails. You must register your email address or phone number to every single scam you ever come across, including suspicious phishing sites, dating apps and online casinos of unknown regions. Doing this ensures that you are added to spam distribution lists and blacklists worldwide, making your online “trust score” down to the absolute lowest as possible.

3. Livestream all the time

I recommend livestreaming your entire life 24/7 on online platforms like YouTube. This makes it impossible for you to hide your privacy, boosting your digital footprint. Everyone sees you eat, everyone sees you drink, and everyone sees you sleep. The internet will turn into your ultimate footprint producing machine.
