Hello Mr. [ENTER CONGRESSMAN'S NAME],
Congratulations on your recent political victory last November. I was one of the independent voters who helped elect you to public office. My name is Joshua Minton and I am President of an Internet Publishing Corporation.
Blogging is becoming a necessity of my operating any type of business on the Internet and has become an invaluable tool of corporate communication (both internal and external). I run five websites, three of them Blogs, and consider myself to be an Internet Communications master.
This communication is in regards to an event which recently happened to me as I was taking a picture of the snow that we recently received here in late April, indeed!
As a Blogger, I post many photos to my site, along with audio podcasts as well. So, I was going to snap a photo of a snowy parking lot to enhance my post about that evil snow and you can read about the specifics of the incident that occurred on my blog BOYS WEAR PANTS, MEN WEAR TROUSERS.
-
The end result is that the Internet should have a privacy measure in place legally to protect identifiable information, such as license plate numbers on cars in snowy parking lots and any portion of a stranger’s body that could possibly be identified (this measure would have to be clearly defined) from being distributed electronically.
As I said in my blog post about this, titled “The PRIVACY Photo in Question,”
- Privacy is going to become the most valuable and scarce commodity the closer we each come to one social mind
In America, the things that make each of us individuals cannot always be boiled down to numbers in a government or private database but some of the important things can.
- Information theft on the Internet is already a serious privacy issue that intelligent people are moving to protect themselves against by purchasing Secure Digital Signatures and encrypting all of their attached e-mail files in every e-mail they send out. Likewise, they do not accept e-mail from anyone that has not digitally signed their e-mail and/or encrypted their files. Anyone that does not have a digital signature by the end of calendar year is putting themselves in as serious danger of information theft as the person who continues to have unprotected intercourse with multiple partners is of contracting HIV.
- The least we can do as Bloggers (who should respect each other’s right to privacy even if we don’t respect our own) is to not put identifying information of strangers out there. In short, if it doesn’t fit the subject of the Blog post crop it out before you post it.
