About

This digital detective can map your digital footprints and removes content you no longer wish to share

Di.tect is a personal digital detective that allows users to clearly understand their online personae and gives them more control over their data. The project challenges the existing notion that digital content must be perpetually available and accessible to all. Di.tect proposes an information rights management system—enabling individuals to retract information they no longer wish to share, offering control over online presence and encouraging social responsibility on the web.
