Book Synopsis Protecting Individual Privacy in the Struggle Against Terrorists by : National Research Council
Download or read book Protecting Individual Privacy in the Struggle Against Terrorists written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-10-26 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All U.S. agencies with counterterrorism programs that collect or "mine" personal data-such as phone records or Web sites visited-should be required to evaluate the programs' effectiveness, lawfulness, and impacts on privacy. A framework is offered that agencies can use to evaluate such information-based programs, both classified and unclassified. The book urges Congress to re-examine existing privacy law to assess how privacy can be protected in current and future programs and recommends that any individuals harmed by violations of privacy be given a meaningful form of redress. Two specific technologies are examined: data mining and behavioral surveillance. Regarding data mining, the book concludes that although these methods have been useful in the private sector for spotting consumer fraud, they are less helpful for counterterrorism because so little is known about what patterns indicate terrorist activity. Regarding behavioral surveillance in a counterterrorist context, the book concludes that although research and development on certain aspects of this topic are warranted, there is no scientific consensus on whether these techniques are ready for operational use at all in counterterrorism.

Book Synopsis Americans' Attitudes about Privacy, Security and Surveillance by :
Download or read book Americans' Attitudes about Privacy, Security and Surveillance written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cascade of reports following the June 2013 government surveillance revelations by NSA contractor Edward Snowden have brought new attention to debates about how best to preserve Americans' privacy in the digital age. At the same time, the public has been awash with news stories detailing security breaches at major retailers, health insurance companies and financial institutions. These events, and the doubts they inspired, have contributed to a cloud of personal 'data insecurity' that now looms over many Americans' daily decisions and activities. Some find these developments deeply troubling and want limits put in place, while others do not feel these issues affect them personally. Others believe that widespread monitoring can bring some societal benefits in safety and security or that innocent people should have 'nothing to hide.'
Book Synopsis Why Privacy Matters by : Neil Richards
Download or read book Why Privacy Matters written by Neil Richards and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about what privacy is and why it matters. Governments and companies keep telling us that Privacy is Dead, but they are wrong. Privacy is about more than just whether our information is collected. It's about human and social power in our digital society. And in that society, that's pretty much everything we do, from GPS mapping to texting to voting to treating disease. We need to realize that privacy is up for grabs, and we need to craft rules to protect our hard-won, but fragile human values like identity, freedom, consumer protection, and trust.

Book Synopsis Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age by : National Research Council
Download or read book Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-06-28 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privacy is a growing concern in the United States and around the world. The spread of the Internet and the seemingly boundaryless options for collecting, saving, sharing, and comparing information trigger consumer worries. Online practices of business and government agencies may present new ways to compromise privacy, and e-commerce and technologies that make a wide range of personal information available to anyone with a Web browser only begin to hint at the possibilities for inappropriate or unwarranted intrusion into our personal lives. Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age presents a comprehensive and multidisciplinary examination of privacy in the information age. It explores such important concepts as how the threats to privacy evolving, how can privacy be protected and how society can balance the interests of individuals, businesses and government in ways that promote privacy reasonably and effectively? This book seeks to raise awareness of the web of connectedness among the actions one takes and the privacy policies that are enacted, and provides a variety of tools and concepts with which debates over privacy can be more fruitfully engaged. Engaging Privacy and Information Technology in a Digital Age focuses on three major components affecting notions, perceptions, and expectations of privacy: technological change, societal shifts, and circumstantial discontinuities. This book will be of special interest to anyone interested in understanding why privacy issues are often so intractable.

This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent disclosures about the bulk collection of domestic phone call records and other signals intelligence programs have stimulated widespread debate about the implications of such practices for the civil liberties and privacy of Americans. In the wake of these disclosures, many have identified a need for the intelligence community to engage more deeply with outside privacy experts and stakeholders. At the request of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop to address the privacy implications of emerging technologies, public and individual preferences and attitudes toward privacy, and ethical approaches to data collection and use. This report summarizes discussions between experts from academia and the private sector and from the intelligence community on private sector best practices and privacy research results.
Book Synopsis Attitudes Toward Spatial Privacy in the United States of America by : L. Joe Morgan
Download or read book Attitudes Toward Spatial Privacy in the United States of America written by L. Joe Morgan and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The survey consisted of 64 questions, many with multiple parts, for a total of 105 variables. The questions addressed issues of privacy concerns from various perspectives, technology awareness and usage, privacy safeguards and respondent demographics. A factor analysis was conducted for the purpose of data consolidation and reduction and to create composite measures of privacy characteristics. Focus groups were employed to evaluated and identify the various factors resulting from the factor analysis. These data were then used to create indices for measuring the various elements relative to this research. Using a variety of statistical methods the data were analyzed to determine whether elements of spatial privacy could be identified from the population, whether spatial privacy could be segregated from other privacy concerns, and to develop a comparison between types of privacy concerns using selected demographic variables. Research findings suggest that privacy continues to be a serious concern in contemporary society, that spatial privacy is in fact a unique and measurable concept, and that concern for spatial privacy is measurably more significant than a similar metric of general privacy. Though spatial privacy did present as unique and measurable, the chosen demographic variables appeared to be much less significant than originally anticipated. The population continues to be concerned about a wide range of privacy issues. However, issues relating to privacy in a spatial context manifest as a greater concern than does a general privacy format. The continued growth of spatially aware technology and the wide distribution of these technologies to an ever increasing population have serious implication for spatial privacy as a continued issue.
Book Synopsis Privacy and Security in the Digital Age by : Michael Friedewald
Download or read book Privacy and Security in the Digital Age written by Michael Friedewald and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-13 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privacy and data protection are recognized as fundamental human rights. Recent developments, however, indicate that security issues are used to undermine these fundamental rights. As new technologies effectively facilitate collection, storage, processing and combination of personal data government agencies take advantage for their own purposes. Increasingly, and for other reasons, the business sector threatens the privacy of citizens as well. The contributions to this book explore the different aspects of the relationship between technology and privacy. The emergence of new technologies threaten increasingly privacy and/or data protection; however, little is known about the potential of these technologies that call for innovative and prospective analysis, or even new conceptual frameworks. Technology and privacy are two intertwined notions that must be jointly analyzed and faced. Technology is a social practice that embodies the capacity of societies to transform themselves by creating the possibility to generate and manipulate not only physical objects, but also symbols, cultural forms and social relations. In turn, privacy describes a vital and complex aspect of these social relations. Thus technology influences people’s understanding of privacy, and people’s understanding of privacy is a key factor in defining the direction of technological development. This book was originally published as a special issue of Innovation: The European Journal of Social Science Research.

Book Synopsis Surveillance After Snowden by : David Lyon
Download or read book Surveillance After Snowden written by David Lyon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-10-19 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2013, Edward Snowden revealed that the NSA and its partners had been engaging in warrantless mass surveillance, using the internet and cellphone data, and driven by fear of terrorism under the sign of ’security’. In this compelling account, surveillance expert David Lyon guides the reader through Snowden’s ongoing disclosures: the technological shifts involved, the steady rise of invisible monitoring of innocent citizens, the collusion of government agencies and for-profit companies and the implications for how we conceive of privacy in a democratic society infused by the lure of big data. Lyon discusses the distinct global reactions to Snowden and shows why some basic issues must be faced: how we frame surveillance, and the place of the human in a digital world. Surveillance after Snowden is crucial reading for anyone interested in politics, technology and society.
Book Synopsis The Ethics of Cyberspace by : Cees J Hamelink
Download or read book The Ethics of Cyberspace written by Cees J Hamelink and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2000 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Cees J Hamelink proposes an answer to - how should democratic societies organize cyberspace? - that puts human-rights, rather than profit, at the top of the agenda. He argues that conventional ethical approaches are all seriously flawed. There is a growing volume of moral rules, netiquettes and codes of conduct, but they are of little help in solving the moral dilemmas raised by the new technologies. In this book the author analyzes the inadeqacies of current global governance policies and structures that underpin them, and argues for standards which put justice, human security and freedom first.
