    Privacy Matters Analysis

    • 849 Words

    As Solove puts it, “privacy, in other words, involves so many things that it is impossible to reduce them all to one simple idea,” which can be found in Solove’s article “Privacy Matters” (Solove 181). What Solove writes about in “Privacy Matters” is essentially why the “I-have-nothing-to-hide” argument is entirely untrue (Solove’s “Privacy Matters”).

These days, any information, whether it’s what an individual purchases, or what grades they got in high school, can be found. This information can be distorted and misunderstood, which may create a false image…
