The British Library Releases Videos to Help Bring Awareness/Discussion to Online Privacy
We are happy to see a national library, specifically, The British Library (BL) release a bunch videos where people ask important questions about online privacy to raise awareness of these issues and to get viewers thinking about them and discussing them.
The videos themselves are part of a BL schools project but the issues apply to everyone online independent of age or location.
We believe for any changes to both make large changes to the Internet or begin to use a variety of easy to use tools and techniques to make your time on the Internet as private as needed (we all have different privacy comfort levels) public awareness of the issues, education, and dialogue is one place to begin.
Some of the BL video’s are embedded below.
