Essay #2

Privacy Policies on web sites probably do not do what you might expect them to do. They do not necessarily protect much of your privacy. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enforces the policies, but only to the extent that the policies are fraudulent or deceptive. For example, if a company says that it will never sell your information, but it does, the FTC might go after them. But if the company says that it will collect every piece of information about you that it can possibly collect, and then sell it to whomever wants to pay cash for it, the FTC will have no problem with that. So guess what company's privacy policies state?  You guessed it!

Choose either Facebook, Google, or Apple and thoroughly read through its privacy policy (found on its web site). Write an essay that summarizes what that company does with your data, how (or if) it protects your personal information, and what surprises you discovered when you analyzed its policy. Make sure to discuss in detail some of those examples.

Submit your Word doc containing your essay.  Make sure to put your name on it. (Please remember that your essay needs to be 1000 - 1500 words.)
