Privacy

In our haste to alleviate boredom during the pandemic, those computer savvy enough have turned to Zoom.

I may be talking to the older generation here, but does anyone remember privacy..?

Now we have newscasters and experts conducting and giving interviews in their living rooms.

Video meetings taking place from home, where all of our work colleagues can see our living rooms, if we’re lucky enough to have them.

Liberty campaigned for a long time to keep private information private and it feels like in the rush to connect we are forgetting the value of neutral spaces and a private home.

In addition to this increasingly jobs require photos and videos with CVs.

Why on earth do they need to see you to secure a job?

The internet has brought us many things, but do we need to broadcast everything to YouTube.
