Discussion 1

These concerns involve the misuse or, rather, the inappropriate usage of personal data without their knowledge. Additionally, there are concerns about government surveillance. The government tends to spy on its citizens without their knowledge (Conklin, 2009). The government uses the information of these individuals to understand more about their citizens, which amounts to the breaching of privacy rights. The privacy concern is the most relevant concern resulting from the use of the internet and technology. Technology enables companies to gather personal data from many different sources and analyzes them to create individual profiles. This information is accessible to cookies and used without the owner's consent. Therefore there is a need to enforce laws protecting people from violation of their privacy rights.

      The state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Title VII, the ADA, and GINA cover all private employers, state and local governments, and education institutions that employ 15 or more individuals. These laws also cover private and public employment agencies, labor organizations, and joint labor-management committees controlling apprenticeship and training.

     The current emerging technologies like artificial intelligence requires that the privacy rules should be modified. The advances in the technology will make it difficult for the old privacy norms to be effective and thus will require certain changes in it. Out of the many artificial intelligence is one of those. Since this is also a human developed system so, it can be breached easily and also a false program can be set by the developers. It saves the users personal and professional information which is also an issue and requires remedies to be developed. It needs to be kept safe with a high security system as this saves a large amount of personal information of the users which includes passwords, fingerprints, retina scan and many others in different-different ways (Holzinger, 2019).
