On August 15, 2009, Wired writer Evan Ratliff decideds to abandon his entire life and create a new identity for himself for one month.  As part of the adventure, Wired then issues a bounty of $5,000 to track him down.

What follows is an interesting tale of trying to disappear in the digital age where any of your information can be tracked.  As Ratliff and his pursuerers discover, there are many ways of tracking an individual’s information down as well as hiding off the grid that many would not suspect.

I find the article particularly interested because it’s like a high tech version of hide and seek.  Would you prefer to be on the team of hunters or the lone person who has to break every single connection and forge a new identity while on the run?
