Privacy Mandates, Search Engines and You
Search engines, regulators, legislators and privacy advocates continue to try to balance competing interests of online advertisers and consumers. In this podcast we look into evolving regulations on search engines and how they track users browsing habits and collect personally identifying information. One of the problems with current efforts is too much emphasis on technical details (Is an IP address personally identifying?) and too little on policy-level issues (Should healthcare information warrant greater privacy protection than other information?). The podcast concludes with a look at the need to balance user experience and privacy and describes some options for improving your privacy protections today.
