Privacy and the Internet: Your Expectations and Rights under the Law (Legal Almanac Series)

It is crucial that Internet users understand how to safely and securely "surf the net," without exposing themselves to criminal activity and other intrusions into their personal information. Some of the most important security methods, including the effective use of passwords, utilizing virus software, installing firewalls, understanding encryption technology, and being vigilant about the type of information one shares on the Internet are discussed in this Almanac. In addition, Privacy and the Internet: Your Expectations and Rights under the Law sets forth the role of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in enforcing privacy rights, including a review of some of the major enforcement cases brought by the FTC. The Legal Almanac series serves to educate the general public on a variety of legal issues pertinent to everyday life and to keep readers informed of their rights and remedies under the law. Each volume in the series presents an explanation of a specific legal issue in simple, clearly written text, making the Almanac a concise and perfect desktop reference tool. All volumes provide state-by-state coverage. Selected state statutes are included, as are important case law and legislation, charts and tables for comparison.
