There is no more privacy online?

Khairul Irsyad Bin Ab. Gani (A119398)


I agree that there is no more privacy online because of some reason.

Firstly, there are software’s that can be use for spying on user’s online activity.
The examples are malware, adware and spyware which will be installed illegally on internet user’s computer when they browsed on some web pages. The third party that sends the software can get full access to the infected computer and they will get the entire user’s personal information and they will face problem of losing personal information include account pin-number, mail password, and lots more.

Secondly, there are just a few law to prevent the cyber crimes. Lack of proper enforcement on related law can put internet user’s privacy in jeopardise because the irresponsible person such as hacker, the identity thief and other internet crook can take advantage to the internet user’s and manipulates their personal information to make any crime in the cyber world. As the result, there will be no charge for these crooks and the innocent person will be blame for the crime that they don’t commit.

Lastly, lack of safety measures shows that the internet users are vulnerable to various threats such as ‘phishing’. It’s a term used to explain a process where criminals create fake websites to get user's personal information. They may misuse the information, for example stealing money from bank accounts.

In conclusion, there’s no more privacy online due to the various problems existing. Proper security methods should be taken by users to protect their online privacy.

no more privacy online??

I agree that there is no more privacy online because of several reasons.


Firstly, the security of the information. The private information can be stealing by other user such as the producer of the web. For example, the myspace website. The producer can read all the subscriber information and if they have bad wish, they can spread the subscriber information to the public. It also known as hacker.


Secondly, lack of law for the content in the website. Nowadays, the internet crimes cannot be preventing. The crimes occur continuously and that makes the user not in the safe condition to subscribe any website. For example, if the user has been cheat in the website, there are no laws that cover them and help them to find the truth.


The third reason is the identity thief problems. Some time the user using the fake identity and try to cheat people. For example, loving couple who fall in love in the chatting room. They start to believe each other then start to share personal things such account number, phone number and address. If the identity thief has all this things, they will leave their loving partner. So that, they become one of the victim of this problem.


In the nutshell, I strongly agree that there is no more privacy online because of the security of the information, lack of law for the content in the website and the identity thief problems.

Onlie privacy

While web technology has been developing rapidly, online privacy still remains a hot issue unsolved. I agree with most of the groups that there is no more online privacy.

First and foremost, no everything is private online. Even though personal details have been shared with terms and condition and privacy control is provided in some websites, user’s information is not fully protected. Web applications are built by service providers who have the full access to information of users subscribed. Hence, even a seemingly trustworthy company may have bad internal practices and reveal user’s information to third parties for certain purposes.

Lack of proper law enforcement to protect user’s online privacy is another reason. Everyday, online users are exposed to threats and risks that their personal information might get stolen. Cookies have been created by certain websites to track user’s online behaviour and share with other companies to gain benefit. There is no strict rules and regulation in the virtual world to ensure online security and user’s rights are protected from misuse of Internet.

Moreover, unethical incidents happen online all the time. Phishing websites trick users to enter bank account information without letting users realize that it is a scam. Hackers with advance IT knowledge access to systems illegally to steal information that is confidential . It is hard for online users to avoid incidents to happen as they are out of the user's control.

In short, online users have to learn to be smart while surfing the net. Precautions have to be taken to protect our online privacy in the virtual world.

We can see this situation on social networking website. When we save our information on this website other user can know our information. Although we can save our information as a private but it not covers for all function. There still have function that not set as private. Its show that its have lack of safety online.

Our private information can be hacker is the second reason. Hacker is done by person who has no responsibilities. He or she will access our private information without our permission. They will hacker to get our private information such as our account number or password. Then they use our information for their advantage.

The last but not least is lack of control in information flow. By using internet people can send any information without limited. They can send any information such as comment or article. Even the article or comment tell something badness or not true but it still can be posted. Sometimes there are several article teach users something not good that can give badly infect to the user. This proves there is lack of control in information flow in internet.

I totally agree that there is no more privacy online.

The first and most importance reason are concerning the hacker problem. Nowadays, everything in the internet including websites, portal and many more can be hack by hacker. Hacker can be given definition as an irresponsible person or group that intrude a websites or portals to gather information and misused it illegally. For example, hackers can hack by guessing a user password using a kind of software or application.

Secondly, privacy is also violated when there are people who are spying on our online activities. This can be done by using software such as malware and spyware. Once this software has infected our Pc, the person who sent this software can track all our online activities. For example, he can know the password we used to logging in because of the spyware will automatically show the same page and what we have type to whom that have sent the software at the first place.

And the third reason is because of the lack information flow control online. These can lead to the spreading of our private information without even our noticing. For instance, we cannot control how far the trustworthy company may used our private information once we have trusted our information to them.

As conclusion there is no more privacy online because of the problem concerning hacker, people can spy on our online activities and also because of the lack information flow control online.

I disagree no privacy online.

I disagree that there is no more privacy online because there are many way that we can have our privacy while online.

The first reason is we can install software to prevent other people from spying our online activity. For examples are antivirus, anti-malware and anti-spy software. That software can detect virus, malware or spyware from installed to our computer. So, other people cannot spy on user online activities or steal user password and user name.

The second reason is we can notice a fake websites by ourselves. Usually people log in to a same website every day. When the website changed, we may know it just by looking at the website interface of the original website and fake one. Many tips were publishing in the internet to help recognize fake website. When we can notice the fake web site and the original one, we can safe our personal information from being used without our permission to commit fraud or other crimes.

Besides that, we can set our information to be private such as Friendster website. Not all of the information will be protected under private function because those website are making for people to search friend. If we don’t want the information can be seen by others, don’t sign up for the website

In conclusion, there is a privacy online if we careful when online like install certain software, study about the website that we use and make a choice to let other people see our information or not.

do you that there is no privacy online?

I agree that there is no more privacy online because of several reason.

The first reason is everything nowadays possible to be hack. Trying to intrude any user account or webpage become easier. More high technology, more people with non ethical intrude and do many bad things. For example, people can hack any account users, get their detail identity and start to do cyber criminal.

The second reason is there is no insufficient cyber law. Lack of cyber law bring more cyber criminal. As we know, people can spread spam easily and they will use cookies to get information about users. As there is no action taken due of that , many people do cyber criminal.

The third reason is not everything is private although we set the information as a private. For example, Friendster which is a among of the social networking besides myspace tagged and so on. For friendster, even we setting that as a private, the information about status, name and location still can be see in public.

In conclusion, there is no more privacy online since everything can be hacked easily, no insufficient cyber law and not everything is private although we set as a private.
