In the end, Angwin basically gives up on completely securing her privacy because she values the online connections she has. Her suggestions for improving personal privacy in the face of massive personal data collection are worth reading. And, her path to these conclusions makes for some very interesting, and infuriating, reading. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. I feel bad about giving such a low rating, compared to all the other extensive and glowing reviews already posted. The reason is not the content of the book. It seems comprehensive and useful. However, I couldn't read far into the book because of the poor writing. There were many sentences with what I call "different" traps. Such as "people create their passwords different ways at different times for different web sites." (That's not a quote.) Such constructions leave me discouraged. I've wasted those seconds reading a sentence that tells me nothing at all. There were other examples of poor writing. I was surprised that a respected journalist would write this way. The book could have been so much better with an editor. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Online ads from websites you've visited... smartphones and cars transmitting your location... data-gathering surveillance operations across the Internet and on your phone lines. You are being watched.... Angwin offers a revelatory and unsettling look at how the government, private companies, and even criminals use technology to indiscriminately sweep up vast amounts of our personal data. She argues that the greatest long-term danger is that we start to internalize the surveillance and censor our words and thoughts, until we lose our freedom. Appalled at such a prospect, Angwin conducts a series of experiments to try to protect herself. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
