Consumer Critique: Guard Your ID

I recently had a chance to try out Guard Your ID products. It's a different solution for hiding your identity than shredding, cutting, or tearing sensitive documents. The products are available as tapes, stamps, and security rollers. They are easy to use, and have a few advantages over shredders. They're more easily portable, in case you occasionally work from other areas or need a solution at home and office. They're a lot quieter. They don't affect recyclability like shredding paper can (depending on your recycling provider). And, they make it impossible to reconstruct shredded information.

The products come in a variety of sizes, forms, and designs, which is fun. They're also very cost-effective, with most products under $20 and refills available. When I stamped something, it was impossible for me to figure out what was under it, whether it was something printed or hand written. If you're looking for a small solution to occasional sensitive information needs, this is a good option.
