description: We all use technology in our everyday lives. We accept and embrace it as a benefit that we cannot live without. The government tells us that 'Information is the new currency'. The Hidden Face of Technology discusses the databases that are kept by organisations and governments and the personal information that is stored and exchanged in order to catalogue and monitor us all. The author has included details about the potential misuse of technology that is now in place and used by many companies and government departments. There are more CCTV cameras watching you in Britain than nearly any other country in the world. Each school provides the government with over forty pieces of information about your child. Every email you send and receive is scanned. Your Internet browsing is monitored and recorded. Your buying and shopping habits are recorded. Your car number plate will be recorded and checked each time you refuel. Do we really live in a free country?
