Checkpoint Internet Privacy

At home you have all of the privacy you need without someone looking over your shoulders at what you are doing. Also you will not have the problem of someone monitoring what you all looking at. But at work you will have someone who will monitor what you are watching and doing. Also you will not have too much privacy because people are always walking around and coming into your office now and then to see what you are working on.
In public setting you have a good chance of someone looking at what you are doing more often. You also would not have easy access to where you would have some privacy to do your web browsing.
A library computer lab everybody would be using it and someone can be waiting on you to get on it as will. This place will surely have people that are always walking around being noisy trying to see what you are doing.
The basis that I look for is to make sure that no one can steal any of my information that I would be using say buying something off a web site. That something like a metal sheet is put up so no one can clone my computer. No it is not legal because this would be the same as you stealing from someone. As of right now there are no certain laws that are available to stop someone from using other people wireless signal. Yes, it is ethical because you know that it is wrong but you choose to do it anyway. How would you like it if someone was doing this to you and you know it and you are the one paying for it how would you feel?

    Wanting safety and security does not mean that you are necessarily giving up your privacy. Take for example, the Barbara Katende story in the New York Times. She noticed a camera stationed on a rooftop about 200 yards from her sixth-floor apartment window. This was a rooftop she had seen, but never considered or paid attention to, each time she walked near her window in undergarments or bare. Ms. Katende was in the safety and privacy of her own home. Does this mean that since she walked before her sixth-floor window half naked she was giving up her privacy? No, maybe not the best decision, but she was in her own home. Although I partially agree with Strossen she should have chosen a better example to support her argument. The camera she spotted was said to be so advanced that it could zoom in on just about anything or anyone and could rotate in any direction.…

    What does privacy really mean and why do people want it? It’s a fair question to ask, especially when looking at the internet, a global system that connects you to billions of people (Oxforddictionaries.com). There are endless amounts of details you can discover about a particular person on the internet. Some people enjoy the fact that they can access so much about another person with just a click of a button, while others fear it. That is why people take precautions, limiting the amount of access outsiders have to their information, however that does not always work. There are many loop holes in the terms and conditions we agree to on websites which leaves us open to the public in certain ways. There are also many ethical concerns regarding privacy on the internet.…

The violation of privacy for students has increased in recent years because they have one problem. The staff at an educational facility take problems to seriously. Most not taking just a little bit of time to investigate the validity of the incidents. The right of privacy for these individuals should be protected at all costs unless problem will affect the safety and over well-being of teachers and students.
