Online privacy

Continuing on from the Identity fraud Research paper I found, I found this journal that looks into the questions raised about online privacy. It looks at the 'people search' companies on the web, and how much information they can look at.

Abstract:
"The article discusses online services that aggregate data people post about themselves on social networking web sites. Spock has indexed 100 million Internet users. Netleaf has compiled a database of over 50 million profiles. Such services can be vulnerable to malicious use and have raised questions about online privacy."
