Unit 4, Post 2, My Questions, Possible Sources


What is decisional or constitutional privacy and how does it differ from tort or informational privacy?

For this question, I would use the internet to find definitions for the mentioned terms. I would expect to find common definitions and examples of how they differ.

What are the common privacy concerns with and what type of information is collected by applications when using portable technology devices (smartphones, tablets, etc…)?

For this question, I would use academic journals. I would expect to find articles written by experts in the field giving information in technical terms.

What are the privacy concerns for an individual using a public access wireless network?

For this question, I would use the books, specifically textbooks because they would be the most current source for relevant information. I would also use the internet to review privacy policies for actual public networks.

  1. Hi, Shane:

    These are pretty good suggestions. However, for your first question I would try a legal subject encyclopedia for good definitions written for nonexperts. Academic articles assume a certain level of expertise and don't usually provide overviews or general information.

    Cheers,
    Andrea
