Foreword. Few issues today are more widely debated than the impact of technology on privacy. Edward Snowden has kept news organizations busy since his decision to reveal the surveillance capabilities of the National Security Agency. The NSA has gathered up the telephone records of every American, as well as the personal communications of foreign leaders and the Internet browsing records of their citizens.

There is a temptation when confronted with these stories to utter some version of “Privacy is dead. Get over it.” Popular variants include, “You have no reasonable expectation of privacy,” “What did you expect? You posted it on the Internet,” and “Hey, it’s free. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to use it.” The contributors to this anthology adopted a different strategy. They put fatalism aside and instead of simply describing problems, they set out solutions; they took seriously the dictum of Thomas Edison: “What man creates with his hand, he should control with his head.” It’s a new approach to the privacy debate, one that assumes privacy is worth protecting and that there are meaningful policy responses to pursue. ...
