Trash Voyeurism

If you ever had any doubts about whether you should shred everything, then I have something to show you.

I found it absolutely astonishing that something like this even exists for public consumption. And even if you find it interesting to read through other people's stuff, even if it seems innocent or cute, you should have the right to decide whether you want to make your papers public.

With ID Theft running rampant, you can find at least a couple of news stories every day covering ID Theft, you must take proactive steps to destroy any and all documents you receive and produce. Whether you shred, burn, pulverize, or chew them up and swallow them, they must not leave your possession in readable form.

Without further ado, here's what all this about. This story ran on 20/20 last Friday night and it is must viewing for anyone even a little concerned about ID Theft: http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=7830369
