Stand and Deliver:Your Privacy and Your life

We all know we are continually being tracked on camera, wherever we go. Street cameras, backed by facial recognition software, were put there supposedly for our safety; the excuse about our invasion of privacy was ‘that if you are honest, you have nothing to hide! [Except your right to privacy].’ We are all aware that this information can easily be mis-used

Your mobile phone is continually being tracked, every few seconds your phone sends a signal out saying ‘I can see 4 wi-fi  networks with these signal strengths’, the response comes back ‘OK you are at the corner of High St. and  Main St.’ leaving a traceable trail of where you have been. You can get a piece of free legal software from Locate which will trace and track a mobile phone. So where is your privacy now?

But you are honest with nothing to hide!

How would you like your ‘ex’ to know your every move?

What about your employer, when you phone in to work saying you are sick?

But you are honest and have nothing to hide, apart from your privacy!

All tracked all traceable. You are tracked if you go through a red light; go in a bus lane, in fact wherever you go.

 But you are honest and have nothing to hide, apart from your privacy!

And of course the criminal fraternity can track you, so they know when your house is empty. If you are unfortunate to buy an expensive car from a criminal, after you phoned the advert using your mobile? The criminal keeps a spare key, tracks you to your work place, where you park your car, and very shortly you haven’t got that nice expensive car.

But you are honest and have nothing to hide, apart from your privacy!

Now The Scary Stuff.

  Do you use any of the following?
