EFF Civil Liberties Director: We Need Tech for Privacy Protection; Laws are Not Doing the Job
The Electronic Frontier Foundation's Civil Liberties Director Jennifer Granick put it a bit more elegantly at the Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium held at the University of Washington in Seattle yesterday.
"We need technology. Citizens need technology to protect themselves because the law is not doing it."
The most well-publicized privacy invasions revolved around location tracking. She explained how the 4th amendment to the constitution (against unlawful search and seizure) only applies at home, leaving many places where tracking can legally occur. Some states do require a warrant to use a GPS for tracking.
