Privacy and Internet Policy Thought Paper Assignment
There are two distinct yet related parts to this assignment and a requirement for a closing (synthesis) statement.
First, use the following outline to help structure the first part of your Thought Paper about Privacy and Internet Policy (4 6 page expository paper). Your resources to develop this should include relevant information from the Reynolds text, information from our Course Modules, outside research sources (at least two), the James Moor essay, and your personal experience.
Privacy issues related to technology Select only one of the following four:
1.Protection from unreasonable intrusion
a.Fourth Amendment (reasonable expectation of privacy)
b.Government electronic surveillance (Web surfing habits)
c.Advanced surveillance technology
i.Geo-positioning chips
ii.Camera surveillance
iii.Facial recognition software
2.Protection from identity theft (especially from Internet activities and unauthorized outside access)
3.Protection of private information (about yourself)
a.Consumer profiling
b.Protecting consumer data
c.Workplace monitoring (as a privacy issue, especially tracking Internet sites visited, email traffic, and email contents)
d.Workplace monitoring private (employee) use of company resources
e.Electronic health records (individual health providers; hospitals and similar institutions; insurance companies; corporate information systems that maintain health information systems; etc.)
4.Protection from publicity from false information
Second, analyze the issue you selected above and apply it to your use of the Internet to maintain both privacy and compliance with an Internet use policy. Your resources to develop this should include relevant information from the Reynolds text, information from our Course Modules, outside research sources (at least two), the James Moor essay, and your personal experience.
Internet policy
1.Purpose (What it is for)
2.Applicability (Who it applies to)
3.Responsibilities (Who does what)
a.Corporate, company, or employer (student should address prohibitions and workplace monitoring)
b.Employee (student should address compliance or any permissions permitted by employer, such as use during lunch breaks, after hours, etc.)
c.Compliance and penalties (student should address the penalties for violation of company policy, or the imposition of graduated penalties depending on what was violated or how often violations have occurred)
d.Privacy considerations (If the employer is a private company, there is no mandated privacy provision, but some discretionary privacy many be permitted by the employer. If the employer is a government or public entity, what is the impact of the Fourth Amendment or what case law may prevail?)
2.Example(s) of Internet policy
a.Corporate
b.Workplace
c.Home; other
Include a closing statement of related privacy issues and how compliance with an Internet policy provides protection from violation(s) of privacy. Write a closing statement that synthesizes your critical thinking about privacy and an Internet policy. Include in this summary any gaps you identified that do not appear to be considered in most Internet policies you studied (or know about). Here is an example to help get you started on your closing statement:
Internet policy and privacy (as a general issue) are inextricably connected. Most users access their email through an Internet portal. This automatically subjects the users to whatever the Internet policy is at the place where they access the Internet and also in the use of those resourceswork; school; library; home; wireless (still through an Internet service provider); and, any other location.
