This Month Reasonable Doubt is covering privacy issues. Privacy
issues are arguably one of the most important emerging concerns of
our generation. The digital age brought with it new ways to record,
track and steal each other's personal information.
Many privacy concerns revolve around the government's
invasion of privacy, such as the computer programs capable of
spying on
the vast majority of human communications, as reported by Edward
Snowden and allegedly used by the United States government.
Privacy issues are also a concern in the private sector. More
and more, corporations are collecting our personal information so
that they can compile data to better sell you their
products—Shoppers Optimum cards or Safeway club cards, for
instance.
