Men en nominering er jo helt fint.
Motivering
Henrik Gemal har udviklet et online-redskab, BrowserSpy, der analyserer den besøgendes browser og dernæst viser alle de oplysninger, som et website kan udlede af vores browsere.
Han fortjener derfor en Simon for både at have udviklet et konkret og brugbart redskab og samtidig for at give andre anskuelighedsundervisning i, hvor tynd anonymiteten på nettet er.
Det giver den besøgende en mulighed for at tage stilling til, hvor meget vedkommende fremover vil afsløre om sig selv og sine netvaner ved besøg på tilfældige websider.
