Written for middle-grade and older readers, Eyes and Spies looks at
the way information and data about us is collected and used by
individuals, governments, companies, and organizations. Each
chapter covers one aspect of the subject, from data collection to
computer surveillance to personal privacy. Arguments for both
increased security and increased privacy are offered, which
encourages readers to think critically about issues and decide for
themselves. The book asks three simple questions: Who's watching,
and why? Where is the line between public and private? How can you
keep your secrets to yourself? "Creepy Line" sidebars highlight
controversial real-life scenarios and ask readers where they would
set their own boundaries. Action Alerts encourage readers to find
out more about how surveillance and data mining affects them. Other
topics include how students are tracked at school; cyberbullying,
and cyber safety. Color illustrations and a dynamic design make
this an enlightening and engaging read.
