The Internet has become a necessary component of our personal and
professional lives, but because the Internet has redefined the
boundaries of communication, it has also put our confidential
information at risk. The growing concern with online privacy has
caused many Internet users to question the security of their
Internet transactions. This book answers these questions through an
examination of the Center for Democracy and Technology, an
organization that advocates for privacy. Li's book introduces the
many issues in online privacy and discusses legal ownership of
personal data, specifically one's name, address, telephone number,
and email. Her in-depth research of the issues confronted by the
Center for Democracy and Technology over a five-year period
documents its mission and demonstrates its achievements in the
crusade to maintain privacy. As we find ourselves using the
Internet for more and more transactions, both personal and
professional, we must be aware of our privacy rights and the
activities of the organizations that fight to protect them-thus,
the information in Li's book makes it a necessary reference for all
public and university libraries and a useful resource for courses
in information technology. Internet Privacy serves as an
introduction to the issues of online privacy in the United States
and examines what one advocacy group is doing to protect privacy in
cyberspace.
