Internet Privacy

March 5, 2009

Google Latitude

Google Latitude uses a tiny GPS (Global Positioning System) in your phone and the cell phone towers to pin point where you are. This technology is a dream come true for stalkers everywhere!!! Not only that but it even helps scary pedofiles.

Facebook

Facebook also poses potential privacy concerns because people are naive and post their personal information like their phone number andress. Also with people constantly updating their status anyone could now when you are not home and rob you by the time you came back.

Employers

I personally beleive that employers should not use what people post on the internet towards considering who they should hire for a specific job. The government of Canada has created laws to protect people’s privacy so I beleive that  this should be treated the same way.
