Social networks are the defining cultural movement of our time, constantly empowering us in new ways. We can all be reporters, alerting the world to breaking news; we can participate in crowd-sourced scientific research; and we can help the police solve crimes. Social networks have even helped bring down governments. But they have also greatly accelerated the erosion of our personal privacy rights. Leading social network and privacy expert Lori Andrews shows how our Web activities open us up to increasingly intrusive surveillanceby employers, schools, police, lawyers, and data aggregator services.

Andrews proposes we all become supporters of a Constitution for the Web, which she introduces in this book. Now is the time to join her and take actionthe very future of privacy is at stake.
