The whole purpose of providing security is to protect privacy whether it be of the corporation or the individual. In business we declare the limits to privacy clearly when we provide access to our business systems. Otherwise, personal privacy overrides. It is our challenge and actually part of the "fun" of being a security agent, to try to outguess the opposition. We provide protection, and gather intelligence as best we can, and so far it seems that we have done a pretty good job. I fear the government that reaches to far into the personal privacy of it's citizens. And this is from one who knows the benefits, from the security management side, of having a long reach. This is an area where we need to exercise great care, and err on the side of privacy. We need to protect privacy and all the other freedoms given by the Constitution.
