6/1 column

Been following you for years, read all your books. Terrific. Today’s column identified several ways to protect your digital “self”. One more is to have your credit card issue you a virtual card, especially for online purchases.
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Not sure how that helps much. If you don’t carry a physical card, it becomes “virtual”. But when you use it, the info is exposed online. So a lot depends on secure communications whenever you use your card for a purchase — no matter where you use it!
Thanks for your note.
