For many individuals, there is a great concern that their activities with entities on the Web may be tracked and linked to them. With sufficient identifying information, a criminal entity may be able to fake an identity and use it in harmful ways. Companies have tried to address this issue by developing various secure systems. Unfortunately, such systems are often too cumbersome or non-intuitive for users. Furthermore, such systems may allow a company to track activities of individuals on the Web. This leads to mistrust and poor adoption of such systems.
