Securing your online privacy with Tor

Securing your online privacy with Tor 03/31/2005 12:26 PM
You may never think about it, but many of your online activities may be monitored and analyzed. Advertising companies, government agencies, and private users can use traffic analysis to gather information about which Web sites and pages you visit, what newsgroups you read, and whom you talk to on IRC. While there is no need to be paranoid (or is there???), you can keep your online communication private. The Tor project can help you with that.

ShadowBrowser (http://www.shadowbrowser.com) is an online privacy web surfing service that was developed by e-Marketing NC during the summer of 2004 in order to make available features that are not provided by some of the leading online privacy companies. It is a service that permits web surfers to anonymously browse the Internet, using only their current web browser and not requiring the installation of extra software, while not leaving a trace of where they have been in their web browser's history.

Online Privacy Policies Meaningless If

Online Privacy Policies Meaningless If
No One Reads Them 06/16/2004 01:21 PM
In a can-of-worms style legal ruling, a judge has dismissed a case against Northwest Airlines concerning how they treated customer info. It's already well known that many web surfers ignore privacy policies or simply assume that, if there's any privacy policy, their info must be safe. However, in this case, the judge ruled that Northwest did not violate its privacy policy in giving out customer info, because there was no evidence anyone actually read the privacy policy! In other words, even if a company has a privacy policy, it doesn't matter, because no one will read it at all. While this (rightfully so) worries many consumer advocates who are now pushing for federal privacy laws, it also opens up other possibilities. Almost no one reads software end user license agreements. In fact, that's one of the reasons why adware is so common - because companies hide the fact that they're installing all sorts of junk on your computer in the EULA. However, if you took this particular ruling and applied it to the EULA, you could conceivably claim that no EULA is valid, because there's no evidence anyone read it either. In the meantime, though, this ruling really just confirms what most people already knew in the first place: most privacy policies are completely meaningless. The only difference is they used to just be meaningless to the company and now they're meaningless under law as well.

How Public Opinion Polls Define and Circumscribe Online Privacy by Kim Bartel Sheehan
http://firstmon day.org/issues/issue9_7/sheehan/

The advent of new communications technologies and the integration of such technologies into individuals’ lives have resulted in major changes to society. Responding to such privacy concerns is of key interest to legislators, policy–makers, and business leaders as these groups seek to balance consumer privacy needs with the realities of this new society. These groups, and others, use public opinion polls and surveys to measure the current climate of opinion among citizens. This study examines the language of 43 opinion polls and surveys dealing with privacy and the Internet to understand how these polls define and assess online privacy. Results suggest that polls treat the complex construction of privacy in an overly simplistic way. Additionally, pollsters present many poll questions in a way that may lead survey respondents to express stronger negative feelings about privacy than really exist. This has been added to Privacy Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.
