Notes for Unit 13: IT Issues: Security and Privacy (12/6)
No place to hide site
This is very interesting. I suppose I never think of things like this because I really don't have anything to hide. I would feel initially that this whole idea is made up of a bunch of paranoid conspiracy minded people. However, things like this have gotten to be a problem. I know that the Patriot Act is a big part of it and it was the first thing that I learned about along these lines. This is a very interesting site.
TIA and data mining
I remember this sort of thing was a big issue since I worked in a library. I feel that the government being able to look at what you check out is a big no no.
I understand the idea behind it. Of course we all want to be safe and doing something like this will make us safer... maybe. All of this intrusion on privacy seems to do more harm than good. Insurance companies can use information like this to deny overage and companies can use the information they gather from your internet searches to try and advertise to you. It's all very annoying and I don't think idea of TIA and data mining is popular with anyone. It's very Big Brother.
