Editorial Reviews

Review

"...a great book…to the authors credit...very good stuff..." (Micro Mart, 28 September 2002)

"...a typically high quality guide...comprehensive..." (PC Plus, December 2002)

"…an entertaining and informative to me…(PC Utilities, December 2002)

Titles about online privacy walk a fine line between warning of very real risks and fostering hysteria about unlikely or impossible scenarios. Internet Privacy succeeds admirably. Its balanced tone and practical advice on the protecting yourself and your computer from Internet-borne threats, ranging from virus infection to identify theft, make it useful to beginning to intermediate computer folk. It also includes valuable tips on preserving offline electronic privacy, carrying these protective practices into daily activities. Naked comes from the opposite direction, teaching readers how and where to find personal information (from death records to credit records) online. This knowledge, however, can help them prevent others from finding and/or misusing their information, making this a valuable guide for both researchers and general readers. It highlights valuable legal uses of online pers onal information (including genealogical research and locating lost loved ones) while also addressing privacy concerns. Both are recommended for all public libraries. (Library Journal, February 2003)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fight Big Brother!, October 29, 2002
By Robert Cannon "Cybertelecom" (Arlington, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Internet and the Information age has brought a new era of privacy, or lack there of. Identity theft is rampant and personal privacy is eroded in the name of ecommerce efficiency or "homeland" security. Internet Privacy for Dummies is an excellent text empowering the individual to fight big brother. What can you do to protect your privacy, in ten easy steps. What laws are on your side. And what forms can you fill out to vaporize that pesky telemarketer - all right there for your easy use. An excellent text - highly recommended.
