On the End of Privacy - Dissolving Boundaries in a Screen-Centric World

Explores how literacy is being transformed in an age of electronic innovation and intrusion. To make this abstract concern concrete, Miller follows the story of a student from the summer prior to his enrolment to his suicide in the fall of 2010 and on through the trial, appeal, and court ruling regarding his roommate, who spied on him via webcam.
