Digital footprint? Try digital tattoo, experts say

https://www.eschoolnews.com/2018/05/10/digital-footprint-try-digital-tattoo-experts-say/

But lately, the digital footprint is being replaced by the digital tattoo, to emphasize to students the idea that any information they put online is permanent, just like a tattoo. Even if they think they’ve deleted it, it could have been saved or screen-shotted by others, or saved by the app or platform they use to post it.
