Should the U.S. Congress statutorily recognize a “right to be forgotten”?
I don't fully agree with this statement, but I do believe that we should learn to live in a totally transparent world where every aspect of our lives. I believe this from evidence we have seen with examples of celebrities who may have said something ages ago that is not ok in this society but is now being brough up and they are being shamed. I have also seen how much information is out there of us from some of my friends who are girls and are obsessed with someone. They will go full stalker mode and are able to find information that should not be open to the public.
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think that privacy is dead in the world we live in today, because of the many protections that are in place when it comes to making sure that there are protections to privacy, especially in the home. Crucial things like the Katz test ensure that there are protections to privacy through the surveillance of others. Data seems to be the thing that is most likely to counter this argument, but with the rise of services like VPN's, I think that the privacy protections to the internet will get better over time, especially when we are starting to see these things like VPN's emerge onto the market for the public.
ReplyDeleteI disagree with this statement because there are still ways to protect and maintain your privacy. While it is true that privacy has become less and less protected due to globalization and emerging new technologies, there are still laws that protect privacy rights, and there are still things a person can do to increase their privacy. All of our thoughts are not an open book, because we have the choice to voice them or to keep them contained within ourselves.
