We live in a world where not everyone does the right thing, people have different morals and values, there can be little privacy on the internet and computers, and information can be retrieved and put into the wrong hands of individuals. As a result it is becoming important in today's world of technology, especially with the internet and the use of the internet by individuals inthe privacy of their own homes, as well as, businesses all over the globe.
Although you cannot guarantee you will have protection against hackers and other individuals who sabotage your privacy and security with computers, as well as protection from children, there have been several laws and future laws being put into affect to protect our privacy and security, hopefully maintaining an ethical environment.
Some of the laws include Computer Fraud and Abuse act of 1986, Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, Communications Decency Act of 1996, Web Copyright Law of 1997, Child Online Protection Act of 1998, Virginia Computer Crimes Act, and SAFE of 1999. These are several laws that have been around since the internet has become popular. There are still laws that are being passed to this day to ensure our protection and privacy. You cannot trust people out there and there needs to be action taken against them.
