Right, with your water. If everyone put one less ice cube per day in a beverage, the state would save an estimated, well a whole lot of water. If we all follow these steps, there will be more water to go around and we may not have to execute anyone. Nowhere is that more true than in the business world where e-commerce has been all the rage. But one of the concerns to come out of this new wired world is that of the potential loss of personal privacy.
Some programs use hidden software to track an individual's access to a web site.
A related concern is that because of the massive amount of data available on the Internet, businesses can amass a huge amount of data on an individual. How that information may be used is of concern to many people. All of these problems have echoed in the political world where both at the state and national levels, laws are being introduced that are intended to protect privacy. Some of those laws are justified, such as in limiting access to Social Security data. Other laws are knee-jerk reactions to the issue that seek to shut off records where general public access is important.
