The International Olympic Committee opened up an investigation into the age of two of China’s gold-medal-winning Olympic gymnasts this weekend — and closed it a day later, following a security consultant’s discovery of online documents listing the competitors as too young to compete.Now I keep hoping this will apply to me and someone will find out I am actually younger then I claim. Really can just five or so years be shaved off? I am not greedy! But it does lead one to wonder what all can be found out about you. I know from my cases it has been easy to locate the following on computer hard drives:-Social security numbers-Addresses -Resumes-Family photos (not that I usually care). And everything else……..so why can’t someone find my age to be five years younger?
