Introduction: Your Life. TONIGHT, LIKE ON EVERY OTHER NIGHT OF THE WEEK, you can sit down in front of your television set to watch a reality show based on someone else's personal life. Featuring real people instead of actors, the latest sweep of reality-based shows runs the gamut from The Simple Life, in which two rich kids are planted at a farm in Arkansas, to The Bachelor, in which you can watch a bevy of women vie to marry the contestant, to The Apprentice, in which ambitious job seekers compete to win a job with Donald Trump's real estate corporation.

Unlike other reality shows, Your Life isn't edited and no one can pull the plug. In Your Life, you don't compete for money, or a job, or for love. There are no prizes. You may discover that Your Life is being watched only when you suffer from identity theft or when someone uses your information to impersonate you; when you discover that your image is being filmed by a hidden camera operated by a total stranger; when someone uses your credit card to spend your money on items you never purchased; or when an intimate or embarrassing piece of information about you is revealed to your friends and others. Sounds like a fun show, right ? ...
