Privacy has gone the way of the DoDo
(Resign yourself – it’s never coming back) Privacy has gone the way of the dodo, and it’s unlikely to return. Resign yourself to this new reality because, in today’s digital age, personal privacy is an endangered species. I often liken it to letting the genie out of the bottle, and regrettably, there’s no putting it […]
