Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states: “No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.”
Sounds reasonable, right?
If you think it is, I invite you to read this article. If you are skeptical and think that “now, they know everything about me”, I also invite you to keep reading it, only at the end, the reason will be clear to you.
Your privacy is not a trivial matter, you should defend it and always protect it!
Today, I’ll talk about:
- why privacy matters
- what risks in a privacy violation
- how Wirebook will use your data.
Why does privacy matter, especially on the web?
Would you agree to be visited by the doctor with the door open?
It works the same way on the Internet. And not because you have something to hide … You don’t need to be a criminal or a VIP to protect your privacy. Your data is invaluable and you have every reason to keep them away from prying eyes. On the internet, your personal information may be in danger. It’s not just your name or date of birth. On the Intenet, the last state of Facebook, the tweet of some minute ago and your photos are a resource. That’s the reason why you should learn how to take care of your privacy online.
What do I risk when my privacy is violated?
The Internet is populated by many people, some ready to solve your problems and answer your questions, others are ready to take advantage of your inexperience with the network. For these people, your personal data are a real gold mine. This is what could happen when your privacy is violated:
- Identity Theft
- free access to your bank details
- home theft
- stolen information
- violation of the freedom of information: be aware of what you read and above all, of the source.
