    There are already in place many automatic license plate readers on things such as road signs and bridges. This has purposes for helping track vehicles known to be owned by criminals, but simultaneously the tracking information is stored for millions of innocent people as well.

    This article, written by the one and only Cory Doctorow, highlights the privacy concerns associated with Google Chromebooks. More and more schools are issuing its students Chromebooks, which exfiltrate all data to Google data-centers and infringe one's privacy. This site also includes other interesting articles related to security and privacy.

    A well-reasoned argument from our favorite security blogger, with plenty of links to help us in writing our final paper. It is also an interesting article as it talks about the debate before Snowden, Wikileaks, and other whistleblowers.

    I got the General Petraeus story a bit wrong. He and his friend weren't using Google docs to communicate, they used a shared Gmail account. They would sometimes draft, but not send emails, as an extra measure of security, but, as this article points out, that doesn't work.

    Here's an example of surveillance vs. privacy that doesn't involve security. Instead, the goal is student learning.

    A breakdown of the bill of rights and how much each amendment has been given up to the government. Pretty terrifying.

    PBS interview showing two sides of the security vs. privacy debate as it applies to the recent attacks in Paris, and all current issues of terrorism and a lack of information even with warrants. Gives a lot of good quotes from reputable sources that can be used to strengthen and support arguments.

    When the 2016 school year starts, students and faculty will return to Sandy Hook Elementary School for the first time since a gunman killed 20 students and six adults. They will return to a new building and landscape thoughtfully, but subtly, outfitted with security measures designed by local architecture firm Svigals + Partners.

    "Signage can be an important legal component in the use of video cameras in schools. As mentioned in the previous section, it is important that the presence of video cameras not lead a person to believe he or she will be rescued if attacked."

    Interesting how this article talks about the gait analysis being used for catching terrorists, while in Little Brother, it was used to keep track of the high school students. The technology is not quite ready to be used, but seems to be much more reliable than the gait trackers in the book.

    Georgia Tech Research Institute is making gait recognition technology a reality. "The ultimate goal is to detect, classify and identify humans at distances up to 500 feet away under day or night, all-weather conditions. Such capabilities will enhance the protection of U.S. forces and facilities from terrorist attacks."
