Looking Out for Your Data Privacy

Join University of Maryland, College Park's Web Librarian, Amy Swackhamer, as she gives a brief background into the current state of digital data privacy concerns, including developments in technology and laws, and reasons to care about your data privacy. Most of our time will focus on different vectors of data surveillance, such as web browsing, smartphone apps and location data, social media, and password management, and steps for protecting your personal data from intrusion through those vectors. Amy will mention sources for more information and provide an annotated resource list with details about organizations working in this area, books and websites focused on privacy, and other places to learn more.
