This book
covers electronic privacy concerns because of computers and online programs
that access our personal data and transmit it to other electronic sources. We’re on camera at home, at the store, in the
restaurant, and at school. We willingly
give our own information to social media sites and online accounts every
day. The information is condensed into
135 pages, presented with tables and graphs that are easy to understand. Many chapters include “The Creepy Line” which
features true life examples of topics such as hidden surveillance,
cyberbullying, invasion of privacy, and gathering data from social media
accounts. There’s a complete
bibliography and index at the back of the book to help check facts and read
more about cyber topics.
