Your identity cannot be stolen. The idea is science fiction. What thieves make off with are your credentials. Many of which you have no choice and sometimes no knowledge of. If you think about it, these credentials aren't necessarily for your benefit, and sometimes directly to your harm.

But it's your job to safeguard and secure these credentials with your time, effort, and hardware you own and maintain. Carry on consumer.
