Red flag of what, though? Eg, I stay away from social media, and create burners for just about everything (rotating burners semi frequently depending on how many random details I post, etc) - so what am I an indicator of? I try to be a Ghost.

I'm sure a ghost is an indicator for some things, but the majority of it is just speculation right? I have trouble thinking of how a lack of information about someone could be harmful as a source of information.

Now, I could see it becoming harmful in that I have to have some type of Citizen Score to apply for jobs, be accepted for loans, get insurance, etc etc. That's quite reasonable, imo. Yet, it's still seems different than being a source of information, e.g. this person is unstable, or this person is depressed, etc.

Your ghosts have ip addresses and the snoops have taps, so really it's only your reputation with the other users you are running from.

I play the same game. :)

Sure, but it's better to play than to not (if you care, of course). It's just like when I browse, always in private mode haha.

> Red flag of what, though?

If your employer/government/etc asks you for your facebook/google+/instagram/snapchat/etc account and you say you don't have any, it might come off as being suspicious. As if you are trying to hide something. The same thing with your banks/financial institutes/etc.

[notheguyouthink]

Well I guess that's what I meant by information vs actually being harmful. I expect it to have negative effects to loans/employers/etc.

I have none of those accounts, ghost or otherwise. I don't intend to either. Does this doom me forever to be a suspicious person?

Why can't it simply indicate that I have no interest in sharing my personal life with those companies?
