I know who you are and I saw what you did : social networks and the death of privacy / by Andrews, Lori B.,1952-(CARDINAL)513404;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 195-238) and index.The Facebook nation -- George Orwell, meet Mark Zuckerberg -- Second self -- Technology and fundamental rights -- The right to connect -- Freedom of speech -- Lethal advocacy -- Privacy of place -- Privacy of information -- FYI or TMI?: social networks and the right to a relationship with your children -- Social networks and the judicial system -- The right to a fair trial -- The right to due process -- Slouching towards a constitution -- The social network constitution.A leading specialist on social networks writes a shocking expose of the widespread misuse of our personal online data and creates a Constitution for the web to protect us. Social networks are the defining cultural movement of our time. Over a half a billion people are on Facebook alone. If Facebook were a country, it would be the third largest nation in the world. But while that nation appears to be a comforting small town in which we can share photos of friends and quaint bits of trivia about our lives, it is actually a lawless battle zone, a frontier with all the hidden and unpredictable dangers of any previously unexplored place. Social networks offer freedom. An ordinary individual can be a reporter, alerting the world to breaking news of a natural disaster or a political crisis. A layperson can be a scientist, participating in a crowd sourced research project. Or an investigator, helping cops solve a crime. But as we work and chat and date (and sometimes even have sex) over the web, traditional rights may be slipping away. Colleges and employers routinely reject applicants because of information found on social networks. Cops use photos from people's profiles to charge them with crimes, or argue for harsher sentences. Robbers use postings about vacations to figure out when to break into homes. At one school, officials used cameras on students' laptops to spy on them in their bedrooms. The same power of information that can topple governments can also topple a person's career, marriage, or future. What the author proposes is a Constitution for the web, to extend our rights to this wild new frontier.

The price of principle : why integrity is worth the consequences / by Dershowitz, Alan M.,author.(CARDINAL)523310;
Includes bibliographical references."The Price of Principle is about efforts to cancel Alan Dershowitz and his career because he has insisted on sticking to his principles instead of choosing sides in the current culture and political war dividing our country. He explains that principled people are actively punished for not being sufficiently partisan. Principle has become the vice and partisanship the virtue in an age when partisan ends justify unprincipled means, such as denial of due process and free speech in the interest of achieving partisan or ideological goals. Throughout his narrative, Dershowitz focuses on three sets of principles that have guided his life: 1) freedom of expression and conscience; 2) due process, fundamental fairness, and the adversary system of seeking justice; and 3) basic equality and meritocracy. He documents the attacks on him and others like him for being "guilty" of refusing to compromise important principles to promote partisanship. He names names and points fingers of accusation at those who have led us down this dangerous road. In the end, The Price of Principle represents an icon in the defense of free speech and due process reckoning with the challenges of unprincipled attacks--a new brand of McCarthyism--and insisting that we ask hard questions about our own moral principles" --How Partisanship trumps principle -- The important principles for which I am willing to pay a heavy price -- How sticking to my principles got me canceled -- Being canceled by Jewish institutions -- Being canceled by longtime friends because my principles did not fit their partisan demands -- Now Trump supporters have turned on me for opposing Biden's impeachment -- How identity politics is replacing principle in our courts of law -- Unprincipled attacks on Israel -- Unprincipled and partisan approaches to voting rights -- The partisan divide over vaccine mandates -- As a matter of principle, are we a systematically racist nation? -- The unprincipled media creates and exacerbates divisions -- The misuse of principle by academics -- The implications of punishing principle and rewarding partisan hypocrisy: can we ever reverse it?
