Is Online Privacy Possible? How Digital Identities Can Help

Anonyome Labs discusses how using distinct digital identities across services can reduce the ability of data brokers and attackers to correlate user activity. Maintaining separate email addresses, phone numbers, and payment methods limits exposure from breaches and identity theft. The approach aims to constrain an attacker's or broker's ability to build comprehensive profiles across multiple platforms.

Why it matters: Practitioners and end users seeking to reduce profiling risk and limit breach impact should understand compartmentalization strategies and the tools that enable separate digital personas.
