“You are being Watched!”

Privacy is a state of not being observed or disturbed by the people. It’s like flying and no one knows about it. Privacy has been a tenacious topic with the advent of the internet. And it became much concerned and debatable topic in the intelligentsia.

Privacy can be shaped differently and perceived in different context and cultural settings. There is no universal idea of privacy but the core fact remains the same with some augmentation here and there.

The term is derived from the latin word “privatus” which means “separated from the rest”.  It is not bound to an individual only, but also can be related to a group or an organization as a whole.

Wikipedia words “Privacy may also take the form of bodily integrity.”

There are many types of privacy like

  • Personal privacy
  • Informational
  • Organizational
  • Spiritual and intellectual
