Question by TushieHushie: How do you call "giving personal information online"? I don't mean online sharing as in social network and stuff, but giving your info in order to open bank accounts or download software or register somewhere. Because when I say "sharing identity" or "sharing personal information", people think of Facebook and other social network. That's NOT what I mean, though. Best answer for How do you call "giving personal information online"?:

Answer by chris
Say "Sharing your financial information".

DUBAI - Iranian riot police clashed on Wednesday with demonstrators and foreign exchange dealers in the capital Tehran over the collapse of the country's currency, which has lost a third of its value against the dollar in a week, witnesses said.

Police fired tear gas to disperse the demonstrators, angered by the plunge in the value of the Iranian rial. Protesters shouted slogans against Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, saying his economic policies had fueled the economic crisis.

The rial has been plunging to record lows against the US dollar almost daily as Western economic sanctions imposed over Iran's disputed nuclear program have slashed Iran's export earnings from oil, undermining the central bank's ability to support the currency.

Panicking Iranians have scrambled to buy hard currencies, pushing down the rial. With Iran's official inflation rate running at around 25 percent, the currency's weakness is hurting living standards and threatens to worsen a recent spate of job losses in Iran's industrial sector.

Tehran's main bazaar, one of the city's major shopping areas, was closed on Wednesday, witnesses said. A shopkeeper who sells household goods there told Reuters that the instability of the rial was preventing merchants from quoting accurate prices.

Bazaar official Ahmad Karimi Esfahani told the Iranian Labor News Agency that the bazaar had been closed because of shopkeepers' safety concerns, but would reopen on Thursday.

LOS ANGELES â€" After that information-free, pre-rendered trailer shown at Microsoft's press conference, we here at Wired were surprised to find a playable demo of Gears of War: Judgment at Microsoft's E3 software showcase Monday evening. The demo featured a new five-versus-five multiplayer mode called "Overrun," which pits Gears against Locusts in a battle to defend or destroy a generator. I started off playing for the Locust side, and deployed as one of the more standard grunt units, although I could've chosen to be a Ticker or three other low-level Locust characters too. After putting far too many bullets into the heads of my puny human opponents, I unlocked the ability to play as a Mauler ---- one of the big guys with the flails.
