Privacy is the right of the individual to be
free from secret surveillance (by scientific
devices or other means) and from the
disclosure to unauthorized persons of
personal data, as accumulated in computer
data banks. Always an issue complicated by
considerations of state security, public
welfare (in the case of criminal activity),
and other factors, it has been rendered more
complex by present-day technology.
