Who Knows: Safeguarding Your Privacy in a Networked World
Ann Cavoukian , and Don Tapscott Manufacturer: McGraw-Hill Companies ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0070633207 |
Amazon.com
This is a scary but very necessary look at how "privacy" is fast becoming a quaint notion in today's wired world. Medical records, credit reports, employment records and communications -- a huge amount of information is profiled and stored online, very detailed, and often for sale. Everyday actions such as buying a car, purchasing groceries, ordering a pizza for delivery all seem innocuous, but information is collected about our preferences and habits in places that we don't usually consider. The authors show how information is collected and maintained and then offer strategies and ideas for keeping the promise of technology from becoming a nightmare.Their ideas won't stop the invasion of privacy in its tracks, but they will slow it down considerably. More important is the idea that we don't have to passively accept these intrusions into our lives.
Book Description
Imagine a world where every detail of our lives--where we go, what we do, and maybe even what we think--can be known to others at the click of a mouse. In business and at home, that world is here. This shocking book reveals precisely how the new technology is already invading our confidentiality and privacy. Fourtunately, it also tells how we can protect ourselves. Created by two cyberage gurus--one an expert on privacy laws and data protection, the other the best-selling coauthor of Paradigm Shift--this riveting expose is the book privacy-conscious citizens have been clamoring for.Customer Reviews:
Paranoia doesn't help solve the privacy problem!.......1999-06-04
So I went to the web site managed by Dr. Cavoukian, The Ontario Privacy Commissioner to ask about where I might obtain such information. Amazingly, I could not send her, the Ontario Privacy Comissioner an e-mail.
I do not recommend the book.

Unleashing the Killer App: Digital Strategies for Market Dominance
Larry Downes , and Chunka Mui Manufacturer: Harvard Business School Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 1578512611 |
Amazon.com
You don't have to look far to see that technology is driving today's economy. Turn on CNBC, open The Economist, scan the Wall Street Journal--you'll find that technology is the prime force creating growth in almost every industry. In Unleashing the Killer App, authors Larry Downes and Chunka Mui look at the dynamics of technological change and its potential to create "killer apps." The authors describe a killer app as a product or service that "wind up displacing unrelated older offerings, destroying and re-creating industries far from their immediate use, and throwing into disarray the complex relationships between business partners, competitors, customers, and regulators of markets." Examples of killer apps throughout history include the Welsh longbow, the pulley, the compass, moveable type, and the Apple Macintosh. And today, with our increasingly networked economy (for example, the World Wide Web), killer apps are appearing all around us.Downes and Mui argue that the dominant trend behind the proliferation of killer apps is a combination of Moore's Law, which states that the processing power of the CPU doubles every 18 months, and Metcalfe's Law, which observes that the value of a network increases dramatically with each node that's added to it. These two laws are fundamentally changing how businesses interact with each other and with their customers. To exploit these changes, the authors outline 12 points for designing a digital strategy to help you identify and create killer apps in your own organization. The book includes dozens of examples of how killer apps were discovered and implemented.
Unleashing the Killer App provides an excellent framework for rethinking the nature of business in today's wired economy. No matter the size of your company or what it does--health care, publishing, or fast food--there's probably a killer app lurking somewhere. This book will help you find it. Highly recommended. --Harry C. Edwards

With
