Privacy Rights in the Digital Age

Description

This new encyclopedia discusses the practical, political, psychological, and philosphical challenges we face as technological advances have changed the landscape of traditional notions of privacy. This volume presents a current, balanced, and reliable collection of material that enables the reader to navigate the emerging privacy rights terrain through entries written by an impressive collection of scholars and experts with corporate and technical expertise. Coverage is detailed and far-reaching. Entries include social media such as Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat; amendments in the Bill of Rights most relevant to privacy rights—the First, Fourth, and Fourteenth; and significant Supreme Court cases responsible for shaping our country’s current understanding of privacy rights in a digital age. Following the A to Z entries is a selected bibliography for further reading. The backmatter continues with a reprint of the Privacy Rights Act of 1974, Chronology of privacy rights, Glossary of terms, two valuable tables listing court cases and statutes related to privacy rights, and Index.
