Privacy

The increased surveillance power and capability of the US government has indeed met an ethical dilemma regarding the innocent citizens' personal privacy. The US government, standing as the backbone of the citizens' safety and assurance, has to ensure that the personal privacy of their people will not be on the line as they pursue their goal for the betterment of the people.

it has also a negative side to it. The negative issues that we are facing today with internet are our online privacy and data breaches. Recently, many people were divided in terms of their strong views about the importance of privacy and the exchange “between security needs and personal privacy” (Rainie & Maniam, 2016) as millions of Americans were also affected by online threats and privacy breaches and at the same time concerned with our security.

about privacy on the internet. The Answers I got varied with age. The older respondents were more concerned about their privacy on the internet compared to the younger people. I believe this was due to the fact that the older people may have had more important information gathered over the years than the young individuals. Another reason would be previous experiences with their privacy being breached and now were more cautious. Despite the answers being different there was a sense of privacy…

Electronic Privacy: When Is It Acceptable to Violate? In the twenty-first century, Americans pride themselves in their right to privacy. In fact, they take it for granted.

"Social Media: Is Privacy Worth the Lives of Others? As citizens of the United States, we have freedom of speech and freedom of press. These rights allow us to state our opinions in print without being censored by the government. This is frequently taken advantage of, but when does it become harmful and a threat to others? If people are using press, like social media, to bring harm to other people, then why doesn’t the government intervene? We have our right to privacy, but when it risks the…
