During a week of attempting to cloak every aspect of daily life, our correspondent found that in an information age, leaving no trace is nearly impossible. Lots of detail on the trials and tribulations encountered during the one-week experiment. http://www.popsci.com/scitech/article/2008-02/anonymity-experiment
