"Privacy is the most comprehensive of all rights...the right to
one's personality," wrote Louis Brandeis for the <<Harvard Law
Review>>, back in the musty pre-fax 1890s. But Judge Thomas
Cooley, an obscure contemporary of Brandeis', probably put it
better: "Privacy is the right to be let alone."

Unfortunately, our clever founding fathers neglected to mention
privacy specifically in either the Constitution or the Bill of
Rights. The fourth amendment does secure you from "unreasonable
searches and seizures", but it doesn't prevent your boss from
bugging the company bathroom, a federal employer from demanding a
urine sample, or your nosy neighbor from tapping into your
cordless phone conversations with a police scanner.

In sum, your safeguards against government, corporate, and
freelance snoopers are pretty slim, dependent on a handful of
narrow federal and state laws and scattered court precedents.
California and a few other states embed broad privacy protections
right up front in their constitutions, but this is an exception,
not the rule.

So don't leave home without protection. If you want to protect
your credit rating, prevent your boss from rifling through your
email, or keep the government out of your bladder, peruse this
compendium of vital privacy resources that no one should be
without. There's something here for everyone, from the casual
reader to the privacy buff.

Your Right to Privacy
This omnibus pocket guide from the ACLU covers just about every
privacy issue under the sun, such as what an employer can
disclose from your personnel records, confidentiality of AIDS
tests, who can ask for your Social Security number, how to
correct government records, and how to deal with sneaky private
investigators. "If there's enough money, you can get anything"
boasts one anonymous PI in the book. "You have to find the weak
link in the chain and go for it!" The book doles out advice in an
accessible question and answer format, and includes just enough
history to give you the proper context. If you buy only one book,
buy this one.
<<Your Right to Privacy: A Basic Guide to Legal Rights in an
Information Society>>
Evan Hendricks, et al, 1990; 208pp.
$7.95 from Southern Illinois University Press, P.O. Box 3697,
Carbondale, IL 62902-3697, or the ACLU.

Steal This Urine Test
If you've been asked to fill this cup, please, steal this book.
"Fighting Big Brother's Bladder Cops!" shouts the back cover, and
nothing could be truer. This classic 1987 volume by the late
rabble rouser Abbie Hoffman is still in print--a testament to the
growing acceptance of drug testing in America. Dear Abbie gives
you scoop on everything: the history of drugs and the
government's drug paranoia, the culture of employee surveillance,
the facts (pro and con) about drug use, the inaccuracy of drug
testing, and of course, how to <<beat>> a urine test, just in
case.
<<Steal This Urine Test: Fighting the Drug Hysteria in America>>
Abbie Hoffman and Jonathan Silvers, 1987, 262pp.
$7.95 from Viking Penguin

Privacy for Sale
What happens to that "confidential" credit form you fill out? To
that workers compensation claim? <<Business Week>> reporter
Jeffrey Rothfeder knows, and it isn't pretty. Rothefeder's book
exposes the shadowy information underground--the marketplace
where credit agencies, the IRS, private investigators, direct
marketers, and other "data cowboys" legally and illegally acquire
and sell sensitive information on just about anyone. To
demonstrate the lax safeguards, the author easily nabs copies of
both Dan Quayle's and Dan Rather's credit reports. Rothfeder's
wry book is a cautionary tale of how our new electronic wild west
of private and governmental databases threaten personal privacy,
the economy, and more.
<<Privacy for Sale: How Computerization Has Made Everyone's
Private Life an Open Secret>>
Jeffrey Rothfeder, 1992, 224pp.
$22 from Simon & Schuster

Undercover: Police Surveillance in America
Gary Marx knows about undercover police first hand. When the
future MIT sociology professor was a student at UC Berkeley, his
student organization promoting racial equality was nearly
destroyed when the treasurer--a police agent--embezzled the
group's funds. But Marx's book looks beyond political policing
and tackles a tougher question: In the face of rising crime and
political corruption, when is undercover police surveillance
warranted? Marx examines this and many other uncomfortable
questions in this surprisingly readable and lively book for
academics and policy analysts, and arrives at a rather startling
conclusion: "In starting this book, I viewed undercover tactics
as an <<unnecessary evil.>> But, in the course of research I have
conluded, however reluctantly, that in the United States they are
a <<necessary evil>>." An extensively researched book that
specialists--and some general interest readers--will find
absorbing.
<<Undercover: Police Surveillance in America>>
Gary T. Marx, 1988, 284pp.
$11.95 from University of California Press

Privacy: How to Get It, How to Enjoy it
This book is a Mulligan's stew of privacy advice, philosophy,
resources, humor, and a little conspiracy paranoia thrown in for
good measure. But as you read story after story--the "little
Einstein" who hacked into 21 Canadian computer systems, banks
blithely (and illegally) sharing depositor information with just
about anyone--you begin to see the author's point of view.
<<Privacy>>'s pithy chapters identify key privacy abuses (from
credit card scams to the 24 federal agencies that gather
intelligence on Americans), offers pointed remedies, explains
obscure laws that help you keep a low profile, and suggests books
to read. Sometimes the advice is right on ("consider the use of
mail-drop services") and sometimes downright weird ("you and your
friends might try learning an obscure foreign language to promote
privacy"). Either way, it's a fascinating, eclectic read. Note:
Eden Press offers half a dozen other privacy books, from
<<Personal and Business Privacy>> to <<100 Ways to Disappear and
Live Free>>. For the privacy anarchist within.
<<Privacy: How to Get It, How to Enjoy it>>
Bill Kaysing, 1991, 128pp.
$18.95 from Eden Press, P.O. Box 8410, Fountain Valley, CA 92728

Privacy in America
David Linowes is one of the privacy experts that every writer
cites, and with good reason--his knowledge is encyclopedic.
Although this book mirrors <<Privacy for Sale>> in focusing on
the abuse of computerized personal data, Linowes' thoroughly
researched and chilling anecdotes will get your blood boiling.
The book embraces everything from genetic screening to electronic
fraud, showing time and again how privacy laws and other
safeguards are regularly flouted by government and business
alike. The book is light on advice, but its overwhelming
evidence, copious studies, surveys, and polls make it worth the
price.
<<Privacy in America: Is Your Private Life in the Public Eye?>>

Champaign, IL 61820

How to Get Anything on Anybody
Want to learn how the pros tap a phone, surreptitiously videotape
someone, tail a bad guy, or crack into a "secure" computer? This
ultimate hardware catalog-cum-how-to-manual for professional
snoopers tells all, and even notes where you can buy neat-o spy
stuff. It's also a boon for less nosy folk, says author Lapin,
because "the first time someone kicks you right in the privacy
act" you'll be prepared. If nothing else says Lapin, remember
this: "law enforcement agencies are only the tip of the
electronic eavesdropping iceberg. Most bugs are planted by people
to spy on their spouses or to gain an advantage in business."
<<How to Get Anything on Anybody: The Encyclopedia of Personal
Surveillance>>
Lee Lapin, 1991, 224pp.
$38 postpaid from ISECO Inc., 2228 S. El Camino Real #349, San
Mateo, CA 94403

Other books of interest:

<<Don't Bug Me: The Latest High-Tech Spy Methods>> (M.L. Shannon,
$23.95 postpaid, Paladin Press). A companion volume to Lee
Lapin's books, with emphasis on showing you how to protect
yourself from electronic eavesdropping.

<<The Law of Privacy in a Nutshell>> (Robert Ellis Smith, $14.50,
Privacy Journal). Not for casual readers, but if you have an
interest in the law and the historical underpinnings of privacy
rights (from torts to "fair information" practices), this book is
for you.

<<Protectors of Privilege: Red Squads & Police Repression in
Urban America>>. (Frank Donner, $34.95, UC Press)
An exhaustively researched book on repressive police tactics over
the last 30 years, with much coverage devoted to covert
surveillance, and the illegal compilation and distribution of
dossiers.

<<Cloak and Gavel: FBI Wiretaps, Bugs, Informers, and the
Supreme Court>> (Alexander Charns, $24.95, Univ. of Illinois
Press). You think you've got it bad? A gripping tale of how
Hoover's FBI bugged, harassed, and otherwise attempted to
manipulate the Supreme Court during the '50s and '60s.

<<Confidential Information Sources, Public and Private>>
(John Carroll, $45, Butterworth-Heinemann).
The skinny on private and public databases--who maintains what
data on whom and what rules (if any) regulate how that
information is disseminated. A slow read, but a valuable
sourcebook.

<<The I.R.S. and the Freedom of Information and Privacy Acts of
1974>>  (Marcus Farbenblum, $32.50, McFarland & Company).
Although the subject's arcane, this readable guide details how
the IRS withholds records and obscures it own procedures--and how
you can make the IRS "tell you everything you have a right to
know".

----> Advocacy Groups

American Civil Liberties Union
There's no national 911 for privacy emergencies, but the ACLU is
the next best thing. This granddaddy of all privacy organizations
lobbies, educates, and sues on just about every privacy front.
Your local ACLU chapter is a resource for cheap reports covering
many privacy concerns (from student rights to FOIA access), can
offer legal referrals, and in certain cases, represent you in
court.
Membership: $20/year. ACLU, 122 Maryland Ave. NE, Washington, DC
20002, 202/544-1681

Electronic Frontier Foundation
The EFF was co-founded by <<1-2-3>> creator and former Lotus
Development chairman Mitch Kapor to "promote privacy services for
network users and examine the interaction of computers and
society." In short, EFF advocates electronic democracy in all its
forms, and is a force in ensuring that new communications
technologies are open to everyone and receive proper
Constitutional protection. The group lobbies Congress and various
federal agencies, defends users wrongly accused of computer
crimes, educates and publishes reports, sponsors various
conferences, provides legal referrals and counseling, and
sometimes sues federal agencies under the FOIA. <<EFFector
Online>>, the EFF's newsletter packed with tips, information, and
recent testimony, is posted on popular online services and
electronic bulletin boards.
Membership: $20/year (students); $40 (regular); $100 (corporate).
Electronic Frontier Foundation, 155 Second Street #35, Cambridge,
MA 02141, 617/864-0665, 617/864-0866 (fax)

Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility
Like the EFF, CPSR is concerned about civil liberties, computing,
and telecommunications. The well-regarded group has testified at
more than a dozen Congressional hearings, led the campaign to
stop the FBI's wiretap proposal earlier this year, and recently
recommended privacy guidelines for national computer networks.
Current CPSR priorities include medical record privacy, curbing
the misuse of Social Security numbers, and promoting privacy for
communications users.
Membership: $40/year (basic); $75/year (regular). CPSR, P.O. Box
717, Palo Alto, CA 94301, 415/322-3778.

National Consumers League
For activist consumers and workers, NCL is the party to join. The
group tackles everything from food irradiation to workplace
safety to telemarketing fraud. But the NCL has a special place in
its heart for privacy issues, and recently commissioned a
national survey on workplace privacy. The bimonthly <<NCL
Bulletin>> reports on these and other issues.
Membership: $20/yr. National Consumers League, 815 15th Street
NW, Suite 928-N, Washington, DC 20005. 202/639-8140

Privacy International
Like Amnesty International, Privacy International is a global
organization dedicated to fostering human rights--in this case,
privacy rights. Only 2 years old, PI's first task is to sound the
alarm over privacy abuses throughout the world and to push for
the adoption of practices that "guard against malicious or
dangerous use of technology". PI raises awareness internationally
about privacy assaults, repressive surveillance practices,
coordinates privacy advocates around the world, and like Amnesty
International, monitors and reports on abuses country by country.
Members also receive the <<International Privacy Bulletin>>, a
quarterly newsletter with privacy reports from around the world,
legislative updates, and news on related civil liberties issues.
Membership: $50. Privacy International, c/o CPSR, 666
Pennsylvania Ave. SE, Washington, DC 20003.

The WELL
This laid-back online service is <<the>> online privacy resource.
Put out by the same people who, gosh, put out <<Whole Earth
Review>>, the WELL offers a cornucopia of databases, online
conferences, electronic mail, access to USENET "newsgroups"
(including privacy groups), and much more. Three forums are
largely dedicated to privacy issues: EFF (Electronic Frontier
Foundation), CPSR (Computer Professionals for Social
Responsibility), and CFP (Computers, Freedom & Privacy). You get
online privacy experts, conferences, updates on legislation, the
status of court cases, and a chance to truly interact with
privacy professionals. The WELL's interface is a little clunky,
but you won't find more privacy resources online anywhere.

Sidebar #1:

"Personal Stealth: Ten Things You Can Do to Protect Your Own
Privacy"

1.    Minimize data collection. Only give out information that
<<you>> believe is really essential. And be careful: data is
often gathered automatically without your knowledge or
permission.

2.     Check for accuracy when data is collected for credit,
medical, and personnel records. Check the information
periodically for accuracy and to see who else has accessed these
files.

3.    Exercise your right to opt out. If you feel like it, write
to the Direct Marketing Association's mail and telephone
preference services, to be removed from list exchanges. [Write
to: Direct Marketing Association, 11 West 42nd St., P.O. Box
3861, New York, NY 10163-3861.] Unlist your name and address from
the phone book. Use call blocking when you don't want to identify
yourself over the phone. If you don't want your information
shared, say so.

4.    Follow privacy issues. You'll find ongoing coverage in the
<<Wall Street Journal>> and in newsletters such as <<Privacy
Journal>> and <<Privacy Times>>. Look for them in your library,
along with books and other materials on privacy. Educate others
about what you've learned about privacy. Share your insights with
family, friends, and co-workers.

5.    Advocate changes in law and public policy. Let your views be
known to your state and federal lawmakers. Write to your public
utilities commission about telephone privacy issues. Write
letters to the editor; let them know your views about privacy and
that you'd like to see more coverage.

6.    Advocate from within. In the organizations where you have
influence, make sure there's a coherent privacy policy that meets
the needs of all stakeholders.

7.    Read the fine print. Ask hard questions. Support businesses
that respect your privacy; avoid those that don't.

8.    Defend and respect the privacy of others.

9.    Beware of wireless conversations. People do hear your
cordless, cellular, mobile, and ship-to-shore communications. If
you don't want to be overhead by your boss, your employees, the
police, reporters, or two-bit criminals, don't broadcast it. And
remember: the person on the other end of the conversation may use
a cordless phone. If this is a problem for you, scramble your
communications with encryption. The same goes for electronic mail
and voice mail. Change your passwords frequently and don't trust
any service 100%, even if it's encrypted.

10.    Be alert, but not overly paranoid. If you follow steps 1
through 9, you're doing all you can.

Age", a radio series produced by Pacific Multimedia for Western

"Marc Rotenberg's Privacy Shelf"

Marc Rotenberg is the director of the Washington office of the
Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility, chair of the
ACM Committee on Scientific Freedom and Human Rights, and
something of an expert on privacy and telecommunications. In an
informal electronic interview conducted over Internet, Rotenberg
shared some of the resources he thinks every privacy buff should
have.


The Handbook of Personal Data Protection
(Wayne Madsen, 1992, $170 from Stockton Press)
"Outstanding and comprehensive. The bible of international
privacy law."

Regulating Privacy: Data Protection in Europe and the United
States
(Colin Bennet, 1992, $16.95 from Cornell University Press, )
"The first comparative study of privacy protection law. Well
written and informative."

Uneasy Access: Privacy for Women in a Free Society,
(Anita Allen, 1988, $21 list, $24 post-paid from University Press
of America)
"Explores the role of gender in privacy. An important book by a
leading privacy scholar."

Privacy Laws & Business
"An excellent [British] publication that's timely and
comprehensive. A little expensive, but invaluable for people who
are interested in following closely privacy developments around
the world." Subscription: 240 pounds/year, 4 issues. Call 081-
866-8641.

"The Right to Privacy"
(Samuel Warren and Louis Brandeis, 1890, in the <<Harvard Law
Review>>)
"For history buffs and privacy experts, this 1890 article is the
starting point for privacy law. Considered one of the most
important law review articles of all times (it essentially
created the legal right of privacy in the U.S.), it is still a
valuable resource for understanding the right of privacy."
