There are so many new threats to your privacy:  People’s faces are routinely recorded by security cameras—surveillance cameras are everywhere. Huge databases contain detailed consumer profiles, which are sold.  Social-networking sites can make your personal information available to everyone—including people who shouldn’t have it.  Electronic tollbooths track your movements on roads and bridges.  You can be tracked via your cellphone.   Also, your computer has a wealth of information on it—your financial data, documents you’ve written,  emails, the sites you look at, etc.

In today’s world, maintaining your privacy is very difficult. You must be careful, wise and savvy.
