Although the benefits <strong>of</strong> technology areobvious, the risks can be huge.That’s because every cell phone call, credit card transaction,discount card purchase, Internet site visited, or e-mail sentor received is fair game for information poachers t<strong>of</strong>ilch at will and without your knowledge. So statesa new book released this month, Privacy: TheLost Right (Oxford <strong>University</strong> Press), authored byJon Mills, a <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> <strong>Levin</strong> <strong>College</strong><strong>of</strong> <strong>Law</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essor, dean emeritus, and founder<strong>of</strong> the university’s Center for GovernmentalResponsibility.“Technology has moved too fast for thelaw, which is not totally surprising,” saidMills. “The combination <strong>of</strong> the Internet anda broad range <strong>of</strong> scientific advances, likegenetic testing, has created informationand societal changes with which the lawhas not been able to keep pace.”Privacy: The Lost Right draws on Mills’academic, courtroom and legislative experiencesand explores examples <strong>of</strong> privacy intrusions enabledby technology ranging from disclosure <strong>of</strong> privateonline video rentals, Internet purchasing habits,spyware that tracks personal online viewing habits,governmental and corporate intrusions, andsalacious or defamatory Web postings made byanonymous bloggers. He outlines the legal protections peoplehave — or don’t have — to prevent these intrusions, and <strong>of</strong>fersoptions to bolster legal protections <strong>of</strong> privacy.Mills also relates his personal experiences as an attorneywho has made successful arguments in several, high-pr<strong>of</strong>ilecourt cases that have defined the First Amendment boundaries<strong>of</strong> the press’ right to know and an individual’s right to privacy.These included blocking the release <strong>of</strong> grisly autopsy photos<strong>of</strong> six young people murdered by serial killer Danny Rolling,preventing the posting <strong>of</strong> Dale Earnhardt Sr.’s autopsy photosto the Internet, and closing the homicide investigation filecontaining detailed personal information on murdered fashionmogul Gianni Versace.These cases were sensationalized in the media and rivetedpublic attention, but the privacy invasions <strong>of</strong> the information agethat don’t garner any attention can do equal harm, said Mills.“People are unaware <strong>of</strong> how many intrusions they faceduring everyday life because it is not in any intruders’ interest toput the public on notice, and when they do it’s usually only inthe fine print,” said Mills. “We don’t know when somebody hasgathered and sold our private information, we don’t know thatsomebody looked at our medical records and that it affected theway we were treated in a job search.”Mills said it is not just government or the press or theanonymous bloggers or the data brokers that have the abilityto violate our privacy rights, it’s all <strong>of</strong> the above together.Although Americans enjoy the conveniences <strong>of</strong> the Internet,camera phones and online commerce, Mills contends few <strong>of</strong> ussurrendered all privacy for convenience — at least not knowingly.“Americans cherish their privacy and the legal tools thatprotect it. At no time in our history have the challenges topersonal privacy been so great,” said Janet Reno, former U.S.attorney general. “Jon Mills is uniquely qualified through legal,political and academic experience to address these challenges.”88 UF LAW
