Cornell University officials are investigating the theft of a school computer that may have compromised the personal information of about 45,000 current and former students, faculty and staff. University spokesman Simeon Moss says the university has sent e-mails about the incident to everyone whose data was on the computer. They're being offered one year of free credit reporting, credit monitoring and identity restoration services. A Cornell Web page on the theft says there have been no known misuses of the data, which include Social Security numbers. The page says the laptop was in the possession of a Cornell technician who was doing some troubleshooting. Moss says police are investigating the theft.

Frontline video on eWaste, Computer Security On the outskirts of Ghana's biggest city sits a smoldering wasteland, a slum carved into the banks of the Korle Lagoon, one of the most polluted bodies of water on earth. The locals call it Sodom and Gomorrah. Correspondent Peter Klein and a group of graduate journalism students from the University of British Columbia have come here as part of a global investigation -- to track a shadowy industry that's causing big problems here and around the world. Their guide is a 13-year-old boy named Alex. He shows them his home, a small room in a mass of shanty dwellings, and offers to take them across a dead river to a notorious area called Agbogbloshie.

How does technology affect my privacy? Most of us have things we want to keep private - from our parents and teachers, from our siblings, from our friends. We all know that it's important not to leave a personal journal or a student card lying around in plain view. But have you ever wondered about how technology affects your privacy? Think about the technology that you use every day - to connect with your friends, to chat online, to download your favourite music. Did you know that technologies like these can be used to monitor your behaviour online? And that this private information can be stored and sold, often without you ever knowing about it? Why should I care? Because all these new technologies can have a significant impact on your personal privacy. And if you know how to use them properly you can control your private information - and make it more difficult for others to use your information without your permission. What do I really know about my privacy? Check out this privacy quiz and find out!

To find out more about the survey, I asked Deloitte LLP chairman of the board Sharon Allen to provide some additional context. Given that my only risk-management concern early this week relates to thunderstorms off the coast of South Padre Island, I asked Sharon to step in as a guest blogger today. Here's what she sent me: When I was a high school student growing up in the small farming community of Kimberly, Idaho, little did I know that a song from that time could serve as an anthem for something happening in the workplace today. The Beatles' 1967 classic "Hello Goodbye" is a study in contrasts, as are the current attitudes about social media. Social media has arrived - and with it, employers and employees are singing very different songs about what constitutes appropriate social networking both on and off the job. Recently, I commissioned the third annual Deloitte LLP "Ethics & Workplace" survey. We polled 500 executives and 2,000 employees outside Deloitte. Our survey found that 60 percent of business executives believe they have a right to know how employees portray themselves and their organizations in online social networks. Perhaps because nearly three-fourths of the employees in our poll agreed that the use of social networks makes it easier to damage a company's reputation. However, more than half of employees polled say their social networking pages are not an employer's concern. That belief is especially true among younger workers, with nearly two-thirds of 18- to 34-year-old respondents stating that employers have no business monitoring their online activity.

"Want to know how much phone companies and internet service providers charge to funnel your private communications or records to U.S. law enforcement and spy agencies? That's the question muckraker and Indiana University graduate student Christopher Soghoian asked all agencies within the Department of Justice, under a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed a few months ago. But before the agencies could provide the data, Verizon and Yahoo intervened and filed an objection on grounds that, among other things, they would be ridiculed and publicly shamed were their surveillance price sheets made public. Yahoo writes in its 12-page objection letter (.pdf), that if its pricing information were disclosed to Soghoian, he would use it "to 'shame' Yahoo! and other companies - and to 'shock' their customers.""
