About the Book

No one is exempt from data mining: by owning a smartphone or using social media or credit cards, we hand over private data to corporations and the government. We need to understand how surveillance and data collection operates in order to regain control over our digital freedoms--and our lives. Attorney and data-privacy expert Heidi Boghosian unpacks widespread myths around the seemingly innocuous nature of surveillance, sets the record straight about what government agencies and corporations do with our personal data, and offers solutions to take back our information. I Have Nothing to Hide is both a necessary mass surveillance overview and a reference book. It addresses the misconceptions around tradeoffs between privacy and security, citizen spying, and the ability to design products with privacy protections. Boghosian breaks down misinformation surrounding twenty-one core myths about data privacy, including these: ? "Surveillance makes the nation safer." ? "No one wants to spy on kids." ? "Police don't monitor social media." ? "Metadata doesn't reveal much about me." ? "Congress and the courts protect us from surveillance." ? "There's nothing I can do to stop surveillance." By dispelling myths related to surveillance, this book helps listeners better understand what data is being collected, who is gathering it, how they're doing it, and why it matters.
