  • In addressing issues such as the balance of power between individuals and the state, weighing the benefits and harms that result from a particular privacy-related practice, or considering whether privacy is a right that must be respected, you are engaging in a process of ethical analysis.

      An interesting take on privacy. The internet is an inherently public space though so is there a place for privacy online and if so how can the proper balance be achieved?
  • Increasingly, governments, corporations, and other entities are collecting information about you that you willingly or unknowingly give out online.

      An interesting way to look at this: We provide our personal data to companies for free just by visiting their sites and they profit off of it. We are essentially slave labourers and we don't even mind.

      I found this Infographic was very good at explaining some of the most common issues we face with online privacy today. I was also unaware that Facebook and Google must comply with audits for 20 years. It is shocking to me and highlights the seriousness of the situation in my opinion of how our privacy and data have been compromised.

Surveillance privacy technology illusion NSA society

shared by Sasha Ross on 11 Feb 14 - No Cached
  • Privacy is mostly an illusion. A useful illusion, no question about it, one that allows us to live without being paralyzed by self-consciousness.
  • Like children of a certain age who think closing their eyes will make them invisible, we assume that no one sees or hears our private moments, and we’re right—until someone watches or listens.
  • The great filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock was fascinated by secrets that would not stay hidden and made a masterpiece, Rear Window, from the premise that entire lives (and deaths) are on display behind the uncovered windows of anonymous cities, just waiting for a watcher to decrypt them

  • But the revelation of the NSA’s vast data-collection programs by a crusading contract worker, Edward Snowden, has made it clear that the rise of technology is shattering even the illusion of privacy.
  • And at the same time, ever more sophisticated computer algorithms make it possible to sift through and analyze larger and larger slices of that data, raising social and ethical dilemmas that cannot be ignored

    This is another very interesting article on the surveillance society.  I really enjoyed this article because it includes many lines that are relatable to everyone and that also help in understanding the issue. This article is very easy to understand and gives a bunch of interesting examples on surveillance and society.
