Privacy and the Internet

Cyberattacks

A user’s privacy on the internet is aggressively exploited through the extraction of information that can cause financial, occupational, and mental devastation, however, there are strategies to protect against these cyberattacks.

Web Tracking

A valuable asset from the digital world is data. This commodity is tracked through the websites of corporations and organisations to significantly improve the performance of businesses and analytics, but some of the methods used are ethically questionable.

Social Media

Sometimes, social media users can contribute to the lack of privacy on the internet themselves because of their actions online. They disregard internet privacy by oversharing content online and undervaluing the importance of digital hygiene.
