Summary: Paranoia doesn't help solve the privacy problem!
Comment: I was disappointed not so much by what I found, but rather by what is missing. After finishing the book I still wanted to know what the precise data enities are that may typically be considered candidates for privacy treatment. This is a key piece of information that was completely missing from the book.

So I went to the web site managed by Dr. Cavoukian, The Ontario Privacy Commissioner to ask about where I might obtain such information. Amazingly, I could not send her, the Ontario Privacy Comissioner an e-mail.

I do not recommend the book.

Summary: Fascinating! Shocking! A Must For Anyone Who Wants Privacy!
Comment: This is an incredible book that deals with the increasingly complicated problem of privacy in an increasingly technologically based society. This book reveals the secrets behind such things as "preferred shoppers cards" and direct marketing. If you care about your privacy, this book is a must-read.
