    • In addition to information gleaned from interviews with suspects captured in the field, intelligence agencies are also mining the vast amounts of telecommunications data collected from emails and telephone calls with the same surveillance technology. In the US alone, hundreds of millions of dollars are being spent on developing the data-mining techniques.

    • Also, although some people like to update the world on all aspects of their lives, including what they are wearing and making for dinner, my belief is that there is nothing wrong with a little privacy. So my policy is to avoid those things like the plague (or at least the swine flu), and I have studiously endeavored to keep my profile extremely low.

        In my paper, I could use this information to convey that people put every aspect of their lives online, even the bad things. Potential employers can find everything that you post on social networking websites and use that information to sway their decision on whether they will hire you or someone else.

    • Clicking around the pages to see what was out there about me was sobering. Photos, my curriculum vitae, a Web site that promised to reveal whether I ever had been disciplined by a state medical board, the fact that I donated to my daughter's school for her after-prom party 2 years ago, even videos of me speaking. On and on it went.

        In my paper, I would use this information to convey that things are posted on the internet that you don't even know about. If there is information about you that other people have, they could post it on the internet, giving future employers something about you just by Googling your name.

    • The line between public information and private information is rapidly blurring. It can be argued that there is no private information in this day and age. You can't find everything on the Internet but you can find an amazing amount of personal information. On MySpace and similar sites, personal pages are generally available to anyone who registers. FaceBook has separate requirements and restrictions; however, some employers gain access through college student children, employees, etc.

        In my paper, I would use this information to convey that whatever a potential employee posts on a social networking website can easily be found by a future employer. It is simple to register for an account and search for a name to find information about a potential employee.

    • There have been dozens of articles in recent months about
      employers using social networking sites such as MySpace and FaceBook to find
      personal information about job candidates including drinking habits, nudity,
      general sleaziness, and criminal behavior ranging from shoplifting to violent
      assaults.

        In my paper, I could use this information to convey that employers now have ways to attain information on possible employees that is illegal to ask during an interview. I would find the actual articles that the author is talking about to use a more credible source and to possibly find more information.
