  2. 2. Discuss how issues of privacy may be impacted by advances in technology.

    The issues listed in the text are the fact that anything placed on the internet has a chance of be misdirected (sent to and read by the wrong person), and if more than one person uses the computer there is a chance that family members gain access to emails and family may eavesdrop on telephone calls made. Also and issue with computers is that anyone with the proper tools and knowledge can hack into your system where they can gain access to active phone calls and up-load emails off of your personal and professional computer and phone system whether it's through answering machinces, pager, fax machines,e-mails, or video conferencing. All of the things mentioned violate confidentiality. Even though there are several security measures taken to secure information none of it really can. (pages 168-171)
