During the first months of 2014, all Social
Media users did feel exposed to privacy interruptions from NSA and the
increasing security investigations they have forced upon companies such as
Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and many others, to look into your conversations and
the information you send and share with others.
Is this snooping into the social sharing a
real act of preventing a theorist attack, or is it just an easy access to get
knowledge of what new things are invented and could be a profitable sell to an
American corporation in the future?
One thing is for sure, the US president do
not score high points from the voters by jeopardising the privacy of the
individual by forcing access into peoples Social media conversations.
What is the actual purpose, for
organizations like NSA to look into millions of conversations from numerous
providers of social traffic?
The official purpose is it to prevent
theorist attacks – or is it pure spying on its own and other citizens?
Taking into consideration that NSA and the
British GCHQ are working together on the surveillance of our social media
traffic makes it even worse if the agencies actually are in for even
political/personal reasons such as Mr Snowden suggest that our smartphones and
social wear about can support agencies with personal data, location information
and details such as political affiliation or sexual orientation. [1]
This entire discussion of who is getting access to
data and social activities, gives us the reason to start a much bigger
discussion about privacy on the internet and reasons to make guidelines for
enterprise employees, of what they are discussing on the internet through
Facebook, Twitter, Linked In and other social media platforms. This is to secure as
little vital information to go out of the enterprise organisation and herby
diminish the possibility of trade with company data from big public
organisations such as NSA and GCHQ
