Instructions: Read Readings 1-3 and provide a summary of the issues raised. While the papers are more generally relevant to data privacy in the context of the internet, at their root it is directly applicable to databases and any data being shared with other people.
Think about the issues surrounding modern data privacy with respect to the paper by Warren and Brandeis (Reading 1).
I would strongly encourage you to start reading the Warren and Brandeis paper ASAP. It is long, it is wordy, it is written in late 19th century legal terms, but – while it was focused on newspaper and photographers (the TMZ and paparazzi of the time), the analogue concepts of privacy are equally applicable to modern digital concepts of privacy. As this is a well studied (and summarized) paper, if you do use other references, please cite them accordingly.
Submission: Submit a PDF file that answers the the instructions provided.
Guidelines: Since people set up their defaults differently, the MINIMUM expected word count is 1000 words (excluding references) – this is approximately 2 pages long (1” margins, single line spacing, 10-12pt font size, 1 line paragraph gap). Submitted file should be named as IS206-A5-NetID.pdf (eg IS206-A5-CSEVANS2.pdf). If you pull in other references (encouraged) make sure they are cited correctly.
Grading: The base grade is 85% for < 1000 words, 90% for 1000-1500 words, 95% for 1500+ words. That base is adjusted based on clarity (full sentences), demonstrated grasp of concepts presented in the reference material (positive) or it is a lit review (negative), whether its a brain dump (negative) or cohesive piece. If you have 1500+ words and are waffling to hit that limit, that will be a negative ... but if you can express yourself clearly in 1000-1500 words you might gain enough points to score 100%. Readings: Warren & Brandeis - The Right to PrivacyDownload Warren & Brandeis - The Right to Privacy Note: This is a fairly heavy paper from an 1890 Harvard Law Review. It has been analyzed many times since it was published. It is useful to read the original file, but as it is heavily law focused. If you want to read a summary from another source please feel free to do so - just remember to cite it accordingly in your response.
