Identity Management - Issues

Issues

The management of identity raises a certain number of concerns, such as privacy issues that may lead to the implementation of a surveillance society (Taylor, Lips & Organ 2009), and risks related to the stealing of identity (identity theft).

The advent of the social web, and the important development of online social networking services in particular; for which the management of members' identity is a core element; also creates a certain number of risks related to the disclosure of personal information (Gross, Acquisti & Heinz 2008), and particularly the loss of an individual's privacy (Taylor 2008).

Famous quotes containing the word issues:

    The hard truth is that what may be acceptable in elite culture may not be acceptable in mass culture, that tastes which pose only innocent ethical issues as the property of a minority become corrupting when they become more established. Taste is context, and the context has changed.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    To make life more bearable and pleasant for everybody, choose the issues that are significant enough to fight over, and ignore or use distraction for those you can let slide that day. Picking your battles will eliminate a number of conflicts, and yet will still leave you feeling in control.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    The “universal moments” of child rearing are in fact nothing less than a confrontation with the most basic problems of living in society: a facing through one’s children of all the conflicts inherent in human relationships, a clarification of issues that were unresolved in one’s own growing up. The experience of child rearing not only can strengthen one as an individual but also presents the opportunity to shape human relationships of the future.
    Elaine Heffner (20th century)
