Tech Therapy: 'Your Technology Is Not Your Technology'
With the latest episode of Tech Therapy, Scott Carlson and Warren Arbogast had to revisit the topic of sex, secrets, and technology because so many controversies and scandals had occurred since the episode about privacy, “The Trouble With Online Sex,” ran months ago.
There was the Sarah Palin e-mail break-in, allegedly perpetrated by a college student. There was the porn scandal at New Mexico State University. There were the gay porn pictures featuring Nebraska wrestlers. There was a community-college president, a woman in a bikini, a mini-keg of Coors Light — and a digital camera.
Repeat after the Tech Therapists: “Your technology is not your technology.” People can break in to your e-mail account, steal your private information, and watch your surfing habits. No matter how lonely you might feel surfing the Web, you might not be as alone as you think you are.
Each day on Wired Campus, The Chronicle's technology reporters highlight key IT developments and put them in perspective.
