I subscribe to a <em>lot </em>of different websites and blogs, as a way to look for trends in tech and in the news cycle. There have probably been stories and opinions about online privacy around as long as "online" itself has been around. But...is it just me, or has anyone else noticed the seemingly massive uptick in privacy problems making the news?
<br>
<br>
I had no problems coming up with a mere four (4) items to post for the <em>4Cast</em> this week and my trends radar is going off the charts. Privacy breaches are becoming not only par for the course, but are becoming business as usual.
