    CIO - Worries have been steadily growing among European IT leaders that the USA Patriot Act would give the U.S. government unfettered access to their data if stored on the cloud servers of American providers—so much so that Obama administration officials this week held a press conference to quell international concern over the protection of data stored on U.S.

    The Google Drive cloud storage service launched yesterday to much fanfare, but as with any new Google product, there are important questions about how the company will actually use personal data uploaded to the system. Google sells ads against your data, after all, and the more data you give the company, the more opportunity it has to screw up.

    Between the 9/11 terrorists attacks and Edward Snowden's whistle blowing, American's have been debating over whether it is against our constitution to collect massive amounts of data on our citizens through internet uses and phone calls, or it our country's security is more important.
  • Daniel Andrade on 27 Feb 16
     
    Years after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, and two years after Edward Snowden's revelations about extensive U.S. government surveillance of phone and internet data, Americans have mixed and conflicting views about government surveillance programs. On the one hand, a majority of Americans oppose the government collecting bulk data on its citizens, others believe there aren't enough limits on what types of data can be collected.

    Terrorism certainly created more fear in the west and Americans wanted to feel more safe. Even if it means sacrificing some personal freedoms so that the government catches the crimes before they happen. Recently, it's been seen that it has gotten out of control more than anticipated.

    Edward Snowden basically started the Privacy vs Security debate as we know it today. He was responsible for leaking vast treasure-troves of data about the NSA's data collection programs that were designed to gather and anilize the data of almost every single American citizen. This article details exactly what we learned from his leaks.

    Can the U.S. continue without privacy laws in place for its citizens? It basically boils down to if the big industries "can agree on adequate policies that balance privacy and profits." The people are asking for basic privacy laws for the internet, but that would mean a tight leash on big company data collecting and everything else implied.

    Data shared is data glared and the whole world is ready to see what a person is socially about. Its a situation that has a lot of people worried after they are usually suffering the consequences of freely putting out their information for the world to see. It seems that these popular user friendly social site are conditioning the average user to do so and the government eye is also watching.
  • Maya Dominguez on 02 Sep 13
     
    I couldn't agree with this article anymore! We complain about how we have no privacy from the government and everything we do or say is being monitored but then we go an post very personal and open things on Facebook and Twitter for everyone to see. It's okay for us to do it to ourselves but once the government does something we immediately put all the blame on them.
  • Latisha Brown on 02 Sep 13
     
    I agree 100% with what this article is saying. How can we complain about living in a "big brother" society, when we post every aspect of our lives on social media websites? I see some postings on Facebook from people that literally record every hour of their day, from the time they wake up, to the time they log off and go to bed.
  • Brandon Charette on 02 Sep 13
     
    I think this article is ideal to make people aware, because when regarding social networks, who really reads the privacy policies and such? That being said, this is a scary thing. Sometimes we don't even realize we're posting our location all over the web.

    This article is eye opening. Most of us use social media to stay connected to friends and family. I'm sure I have been guilty of similar situations.

    It is amazing how much information people put out there. At work, we have to take compliance courses every year. Just last year, they added a couple of modules on social media, and what is expected of you in relation to the information about work that you put out there.

    The article on this site seems to suggest that cell phone use while driving does not substantially impair drivers. It advises against legislation to ban cell phones while driving. The article states that there simply isn't enough data yet to prove that cell phone use causes accidents.
