The Internet of Things and Its Impact on Individual Privacy

Caron et al. (2016) researched the recent technological advancement of self-driving vehicles. The researchers claim that the internet has become a significant technology in the current world, not forgetting the incredible risks that it carries along. This technology has proven beneficial to first-world countries that value advancement as they use it in everyday activities. This research happened in Australia since the authors considered the principles of privacy to apply to the Australian environment and published it in 2016. Caron et al. (2016) wanted to establish whether the APP helped protect data concerning those using the internet frequently.

The research methodology involved a total of two stages. In the first stage, the authors searched for research articles that were relevant to the topic under discussion. After bringing forth all articles for the study, Caron et al. (2016) further analyzed the literature to determine the themes of concern about individual privacy when using the internet. The second stage of the methodology was the comparison of the articles that they found in the previous set of research above. The result of this research was that an element like the privacy of the individual limited the current privacy policies of Australia. After outlining the limitations of these policies, the researchers present the ethical concerns that stakeholders will have to consider.
