19. "web 2.0, this ideology promotes radical freedom on
the surface of the web, but that freedom, ironically,
is more for machines than people. Nevertheless, it is
sometimes referred to as 'open culture.'"

21. THEORY
OF
PRIVACY

22. Privacy is...

25. Privacy is the ability to reveal selectively.

26. Boundaries of what is considered private differ
among cultures and individuals.

27. Private to an individual usually means something special
or personally sensitive.

28. The degree to which private information is exposed
depends on the public.

29. Invasion of privacy by the government,
corporations or individuals is part of many countries'
privacy laws.

30. Exchange privacy for perceived benefits,
very often with specific dangers and losses.

31. Privacy is most often associated with English and
North American culture.

32. Privacy sets Anglo-Americanculture apart
even from other Western European cultures such as
French or Italian.

33. Privacy is NOT a universal
concept and remained virtually unknown in some
cultures until recent times.

34. The word "privacy" is sometimes regarded as
untranslatable by linguists.

35. Many languages, including Korean, lack a
specific word for "privacy".

36. Privacy is key

41. Newspeak
You donʼt grasp the beauty of the destruction of words. Do you know that Newspeak is the only
language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller every year? Donʼt you see that the whole aim of
Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally
impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be
needed will be expressed by exactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary
meanings rubbed out and forgotten.

43. FREEDOM
noun
the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint : we do
have some freedom of choice | he talks of revoking some of the freedoms. See note at
liberty .
• absence of subjection to foreign domination or despotic government : he was a champion
of Irish freedom.
• the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved : the shark thrashed its way to freedom.
• the state of being physically unrestricted and able to move easily : the shorts have a side
split for freedom of movement.
• ( freedom from) the state of not being subject to or affected by (a particular undesirable
thing) : government policies to achieve freedom from want.
• the power of self-determination attributed to the will; the quality of being independent of
fate or necessity.
• unrestricted use of something : the dog is happy having the freedom of the house when we
are out.

44. LIBERTY
noun
1 the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on
one's way of life, behavior, or political views : compulsory retirement would interfere with
individual liberty.
• (usu. liberties) an instance of this; a right or privilege, esp. a statutory one : the Bill of
Rights was intended to secure basic civil liberties.
• the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved : people who have lost property or liberty
without due process.
2 the power or scope to act as one pleases : individuals should enjoy the liberty to pursue
their own interests and preferences.
• Philosophy a person's freedom from control by fate or necessity.

45. Notice how the two definitions are very different except for in one instance; both
include "the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved".

46. Convergence of definition allowed for a flip in
the popular culture to occur, where simplistic freedom replaced the far more sinewed--and
thus complicated--liberty in the public discourse. This is a tragedy.

47. Freedom and liberty are NOT the
same thing.

48. Freedom is devoid of responsibility ("nothing left to lose"?) and awareness for it's
environment, people and society included...
"My freedom ends where yours
begins"
This maxim speaks directly of the true nature of what it means to live in a group (which
connotes a society, which connotes all sorts of things like laws and politics.)

49. If "freedom ends", then it is not by definition freedom, for freedom has no limits. If I accept
that there is a self and an other, and that we have met, then it is with liberty that we must
living in a group
live together. I am free to kill you, but it goes
further than mere freedom, for I have the liberty to choose to do so and suffer the
responsibility such an act entails.

50. SOME
SHORT
HISTORY

51. The idea of human rights , that is the notion that anyone has a set of
inviolable rights simply on grounds of being human regardless of legal status, origin or conviction for
crimes, emerges as an idea of Humanism in the Early Modern period and becomes a position in the
18th century Age of Enlightenment.

52. Magna Carta is an English charter originally issued in 1215. Magna Carta was
the most significant early influence on the extensive historical process that led to the rule of
constitutional law today. Magna Carta influenced the development of the common law and many
constitutional documents, such as the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights.

53. Magna Carta was originally written because of disagreements amongst Pope Innocent III, King John
and the English barons about the rights of the King. Magna Carta required the King to renounce
certain rights, respect certain legal procedures and accept that his will could be bound
by the law. It explicitly protected certain rights of the King's subjects, whether free
or fettered — most notably the writ of habeas corpus, allowing appeal against unlawful imprisonment.

54. For modern times, the most enduring legacy of Magna Carta is considered the right of
habeas corpus. This right arises from what are now known as clauses 36, 38, 39, and 40 of the 1215
Magna Carta.

55. Habeas corpus (Latin meaning "you are to have the body") is a writ, or
legal action, through which a prisoner can be released from unlawful detention. The remedy can be
sought by the prisoner or by another person coming to his aid. Habeas corpus originated in the
English legal system, but it is now available in many nations. It has historically been an important legal
instrument safeguarding individual freedom against arbitrary state action.

56. Habeas corpus has certain limitations. It is technically only a procedural
remedy; it is a guarantee against any detention that is forbidden by law, but it does not necessarily
protect other rights, such as the entitlement to a fair trial. So if an imposition such as internment
without trial is permitted by the law then habeas corpus may not be a useful remedy. Furthermore, in
many countries, the process may be suspended due to a national emergency.

57. The right to petition for a writ of habeas corpus has nonetheless long been celebrated as the most
efficient safeguard of the liberty of the subject.

58. Albert Venn Dicey wrote that the British Habeas Corpus Acts "declare no principle and define no
worth a hundred
rights, but they are for practical purposes
constitutional articles guaranteeing individual liberty".

59. John Locke most notably, and several 17th and 18th century European
philosophers, developed the concept of natural rights, the notion that people are naturally free and
equal. Though Locke believed natural rights were derived from divinity since humans were creations
of God, his ideas were important in the development of the modern notion of rights. Lockean natural
rights did not rely on citizenship nor any law of the state, nor were they necessarily limited to one
particular ethnic, cultural or religious group.

60. Two major revolutions occurred that century in the United
States (1776) and in France (1789). The Virginia Declaration of Rights of 1776 sets up a number of
fundamental rights and freedoms. The later United States Declaration of Independence includes
concepts of natural rights and famously states "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed
by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness." Similarly, the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen defines a set of
individual and collective rights of the people. These are, in the document, held to be universal - not
only to French citizens but to all men without exception.

61. Thomas Paine, John Stuart Mill and Hegel expanded on the theme of universality during the 18th and
On
19th centuries. In 1849 Henry David Thoreau, wrote about human rights in his treatise
the Duty of Civil Disobedience which was
later influential on human rights and civil rights thinkers.

62. United States Supreme Court Justice David Davis, in his 1867 opinion for Ex Parte Milligan, wrote
"By the protection of the law , human rights are
secured; withdraw that protection and they are at the mercy of wicked rulers or the clamor of an
excited people."

63. Security of the person is a basic entitlement guaranteed by
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations in 1948. It is also a human
right explicitly mentioned and protected by the Constitution of Canada, the Constitution of South Africa
and other laws around the world.

64. In general, the right to the security of one's person is associated with liberty and includes the right, if
one is imprisoned unlawfully, to the remedy of habeas corpus . Security of
person can also be seen as an expansion of rights based on prohibitions of torture and cruel and
unusual punishment. Rights to security of person can guard against less lethal conduct, and can be
used in regard to prisoners' rights.
