One challenge with finding information online is determining whether the information is from a credible source. Many times one may encounter fraudulent or misleading information on various social media platforms and people often rely on the internet to obtain information, however that information available can be easily manipulated. At times it is hard to determine the trustworthiness of online information because the information is shared at a faster rate when it is not correct and spark controversy. While conducting the digital identity investigation, I searched using Google, LinkedIn, and Face book, to collect information about my digital leader. In each site I learnt a little more about the digital leader. Since all the information matched up, I figured I could document his digital identity, using his digital footprint.
