This is now the third incarnation of my Tumblr account, the original one here. An important part of my esoteric #seo patterning is the random jettisoning and re-arranging of online identity artifacts, but more on that soon!

This is kind of a mixture of numbers 2 and 3 above, and is something I’m currently experimenting with on my Twitter account. The second I found out that I, as a user of that system, did not have the right to delete my account and all information associated with it, I realized I didn’t want to keep using it in the same way as I had been. So what I did was went in and modified my settings, skewed my profile, and then publicly posted an invitation (along with my password, “usafreedom”) to any other entity who wanted to come along and take over the account. What benefit does this have for me or for the entity which took over my account? Right now, I have no idea. But the point is that I hit in the system what was supposed to be a dead end, the technical inability for a user to delete their account, and found a way to circumvent it by playing outside of the rule-set altogether: giving away freely what I was once trying to monopolize (part of an online identity of persona). This subject has a LOT of different ways it could pan out along the subjects of identity theft and identity management. I’ve only really begun to explore… [...] [...] Swap identities and trails.

Have been messing around with releasing elements of my online identity into random outsider control. As in my Twitter account, for which I have just announced the password and posted an open invitation to utilize the username. Maybe noone will use it. Maybe someone will use it for ends I wouldn’t agree with or wouldn’t want to be associated with. Too bad. It’s out of my hands at this point.
