Key Findings – The Symantec Identity Survey
- Australians typically have more than 10 online profiles or ‘virtual identities’
- 20 percent of Australians believe that their online identities are closer to their ‘true self’, than their real-world identity (amongst Australian online ‘power users’ of social networking sites, dating sites, virtual worlds or gaming sites, this figure jumps to 40 percent)
- 77 percent of Australians believe that people share more information about themselves online, than they do in the real world
- The majority of Australians provide personal information in the public online domain that could put them at risk of online identity theft
- The survey found that nine out of 10 Australians aged between 16 and 49 are Internet users

That line alone says the demographics for the survey was not varied very well, or a very small group was surveyed to begin with. Either way, in my experience, the results are not very accurate, but then again, how many surveys really are?
