Privacy problem in a digital epoch
Being an inalienable right of a citizen of a democratic state, the right to privacy of life in the digital age is exposed to constant intrusions and encroachments. Private life is becoming an object of interest for the public, state intelligence agencies, commercial organizations, and crime, who have received the opportunity through information and communication technologies not only to look after a person through correspondence and analysis of personal data, but also to manipulate consumer choice, generate demand, track movements and contacts. At the same time, as the results of sociological studies show, modern society itself is becoming more open, and users of Internet resources give the important personal information, often voluntarily post terabytes of photos and videos, losing the border between privacy and publicity, morally acceptable and legally prohibited.
