01:Security, Liberty, or Neither?

Start by considering the tension between surveillance and the rule of law. While the pace of technological change is extremely rapid, laws are slow to keep up. Worse, the institutions responsible for creating laws often have internal conflicts about the role of privacy and security-as illustrated by a dramatic face-off over John Ashcroft’s hospital bed….

Case studies of the Osama Bin Laden raid and U.S. airport screening show the tension between security and tran…

See what measures the American government took during the Cold War to prevent our devolution into a Stasi-like state.

05:Failing to Connect the Dots on 9/11

After 9/11, the CIA and the FBI were faulted for not sharing intelligence in advance of the attacks. But the two agencies faced stringent legal restrictions on sharing information, going back to the 1978 FISA legislation, which erected a “wall” between intelligence gathering and criminal investigations. Review the reasons for and the history of this legislation and the changes that happened after …

The government and private industries are using a vast cache of information about each of us: our travel patterns, our web browsing habits, our purchasing preferences, and more.

08:Some Problems with Privacy

Because our privacy laws are so far behind today’s technology, we need a modern conception of privacy that offers enough flexibility for national security, but that also protects against abuse. Here, reflect on the nature of privacy and consider the two extremes: a Panopticon world of total surveillance on the one hand, and complete invisibility on the other….

09:Under Observation: The Panopticon Effect

What happens when we know we are under observation? Or when we know we are anonymous?

You are where you go-at least according to advertisers, divorce attorneys, and criminal investigators.

Shift your attention to electronic surveillance, and see how the monitoring of web searches and emails allows the government to gain insights into potential security risks from abroad.

Excellent balance between big picture and details

I work in the information economy but am always trying to learn more about digital surveillance and data management. This course was accessible to be as a novice but also included examples that information professionals may have missed in the news. I liked how he introduced theory and gave real world examples to cement the ideas.
