5.0 out of 5 stars I had no idea..., January 17, 2002
By A Customer
what was happening with the personal information I gave my local grocery store when I signed up for their shopping card. And that, folks, is just the tip of the iceburg. This is a fascinating book that has great technical information but is still easy for the average computer user to read. Read it to find out what has changed in our lives since September 11, and how you can make informed decisions regarding your personal privacy. If you don't read it for yourself, read it to protect your children. (Chapter 4) You'll be glad you did.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT a scary book!, June 12, 2002
By "saramckenzie" (Vancouver, BC) - See all my reviews
I am 75, and have hesitated to buy books about the Internet, because I am not very technical and just use the Web to read email and research topics about geneology. But a friend loaned it to me, and I was amazed to find that it is written in a clear and friendly way, and that the technical details (including how to protect my home computer) were very easy to follow. The authors are interesting people who share a lot of their lives to help us understand privacy issues. In addition, I lent the book to my daughter-in-law, who discovered using the checklist in the book that someone had stolen her identity, and is using resources it recommends to fix it. You should read this book
