Privacy and The Internet

After I researched the topic on privacy concerning internet and organizations, I was asked to give a presentation and speech concerning the issue. I tracked this issue for a month with articles up to a year old. These are the slides that go along with my privacy presentation. In it, I make recommendations for both personal and business usage concerning privacy and the internet. I ended my presentation with a silly but catchy thought to always be aware, assess and adapt.

automatic number plate recognition systems
