Internet Policy Issues: CJN 771

With today's technology and the amount of accounts we share on the Internet, one policy that we can only hope to trust is the issue of privacy. Things like Facebook and online banking tell us to put a lot of faith in the Internet, and tell us that people will not be hacking our information and our bank accounts. However some websites sell our information to third party viewers and make it so we are bombarded with junk mail and other things we do not enjoy. People also post things that they believe are private but anyone can see, which makes things like Facebook's new privacy settings infuriating because things that were once private are not anymore.
