Privacy

The Privacy Dilemma 
This article talks about how the more we post, online, the less private our lives become. It also talks about how there's only so much a consumer can do to prevent this from happening. This seems to be the obvious, but its actually a serious problem today which may only worsen in the future. If people stay updated on their passwords and account status this has more of a chance of being prevented.

Why Privacy is Actually Thriving Online
The article explains how publicity and privacy go together. It also goes more in depth talking about publicity not being a necessarily bad thing like everyone talks about. Publicity helps just as many people as it does hurt them. I think this article is on point especially how it looks at a different point of view on privacy. I believe some things you should keep public, like business, and personal things private.

Privacy Is A Part Of Civilized Society: There's No Defense For Having It Taken By Force
This article presents a similar topic, how publicity is good for many people, but instead of talking about how good it is it talks about how it's forced. We don't have much control over what goes public or who goes private and this is very true. About a year ago I posted a pic on my Instagram, which is set on private, and one of my followers screen shot the picture which others found offensive. I went somewhat public and got a lot of hate but the offense wasn't intentional.
