Our Data, Ourselves - A Personal Guide to Digital Privacy

"There are few resources available for nonspecialists to learn about data privacy issues. This book fills this gap by providing a comprehensive overview of issues relevant to ordinary citizens, in language understandable by all."—Carl H. Coleman, Professor of Law, Seton Hall University School of Law

"A practical primer for anyone wishing to understand why and how their data is being used—and how individuals can attempt to protect themselves. Our Data, Ourselves also offers an overview of existing privacy protections and is ultimately a damning glimpse into the lack thereof in the United States."—David Hickton, Founding Director, Pitt Cyber
