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:

    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)

    Your toddler will be “good” if he feels like doing what you happen to want him to do and does not happen to feel like doing anything you would dislike. With a little cleverness you can organize life as a whole, and issues in particular, so that you both want the same thing most of the time.
    Penelope Leach (20th century)

    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)
