Privacy has become one of the most important public policy issues of our time, but how did we get here? What events and campaigns inspired this crucial issue? In Privacy: A Personal Chronicle, author Simon Davies, one of the pioneers of the privacy movement, recounts his personal experience from the 1980's in establishing the global privacy advocacy movement and tells the inside story of some of the campaigns that ended up changing the world. From the pre-Internet analogue era to the time of mass digital surveillance, this is the narrative of one person's journey through the maze of one of the modern world's most important and controversial rights.The book takes you on a journey from the remote deserts of Africa to the board rooms of the world's most influential corporations. It recounts campaigns that held the most powerful entities on earth to account. And, perhaps more important, it describes how an ordinary person - with the guidance of astute campaigning tactics - can help shift the perceptions of entire nations.It also offers a digestible primer for anyone interested in this field and who wants to understand the basis of law and technology.
