While other books in the field focus on specific aspects of privacy
or how to avoid invasions, David H. Holtzman–a master
technologist, internet pioneer, security analyst, and former
military codebreaker–presents a comprehensive insider’s
exposé of the world of invasive technology, who’s using it,
and how our privacy is at risk. Holtzman starts out by categorizing
privacy violations into ‘The 7 Sins Against Privacy’ and then goes
on to explain in compelling and easy to understand language exactly
how privacy is being eroded in every aspect of our lives.
Holtzman vividly reveals actual invasions and the dangers
associated with the loss of privacy, and he takes a realistic look
at the trade offs between privacy and such vital issues as
security, rights, and economic development.
Praise for Privacy Lost
‘Whether we know it or not, we have all become citizens of the
Digital Age. As such we need to take responsibility for our
conduct, our safety, and our privacy. David Holtzman is deeply
knowledgeable about the industry and passionate about the issues.
Regardless of your political views, you will come away from this
book better equipped to meet the challenges before us all.’
–Geoffrey A. Moore, author, Dealing with Darwin: How Great
Companies Innovate at Every Phase of Their Evolution
‘Holtzman has drafted a blueprint all citizens of this great land
ought to read if they desire to understand what privacy truly
means, why it is important to both their everyday life as well as
to their understanding of what it really means to be free, and what
they can do to salvage what little privacy is left them. Privacy
Lost needs to be readily available on the desks of all concerned
citizens–heavily dog-eared and underlined.’
–Bob Barr, practicing attorney and former Member of the United
States House of Representatives
