该句暂无译文!

第三段

1 .Sure, fine by me.

该句暂无译文!

该句暂无译文!

3 .Is that right?

该句暂无译文!

第四段

1 .Yes.And then 5 minutes for questions ...

该句暂无译文!

第五段

1 .Oh, right, I'd forgotten that.

该句暂无译文!

第六段

1 .So - what shall we choose as a topic?

该句暂无译文!

3 .or intellectual property law.

该句暂无译文!

4 .It's a tricky area though.

该句暂无译文!

第七段

1 .Well, I've been doing a bit of reading about digital privacy and it's actually a really challenging issue now.

该句暂无译文!

2 .I mean, the way employers and government departments rely on commercial databases for information on people.

该句暂无译文!

第八段

1 .OK, that sounds like it has potential.

该句暂无译文!

2 .Tell me more - I can't say I've read much about it.

该句暂无译文!

第九段

1 .Um ... well, these databases compile Information on all sorts of things, not just birthdates and income.

该句暂无译文!

2 .They record people's lawsuits and convictions, employment history,

该句暂无译文!

3 .credit rating, medical history - a range of statistics and stuff that is often out of date or is only partially true.

该句暂无译文!

4 . And they get this information from public records on the Internet?

该句暂无译文!

5 .You mean it's actually available online?

该句暂无译文!

第十段

1 .Yes, and that's the problem.

该句暂无译文!

2 .We live in such a networked society now.

该句暂无译文!

3 .There's so much data on the net, and it's really accessible.

该句暂无译文!

4 .Often the company employees who compile these databases include dated information or get confused by similar names and list the wrong details for people.

该句暂无译文!

第十一段

1 . I'm starting to get the idea.

该句暂无译文!

2 .What kind of things can go wrong?

该句暂无译文!

第十二段

1 .Well, for example,

该句暂无译文!

2 .a sales manager was fired because of a background check by a data company which reported that he'd served a jail term.

该句暂无译文!

3 .He protested, but his boss still fired him.

该句暂无译文!

该句暂无译文!

5 .He suffered an unjust dismissal plus the stress of trying to find another job.

该句暂无译文!

6 .He was out of work for seven months.

该句暂无译文!

第十三段

1 . I see. OK,

该句暂无译文!

2 .this has really got me thinking now!

该句暂无译文!

3 .It's a great topic.

该句暂无译文!

第一段

1 .Ah ...l 'm thinking now about how the search engines apparently compile information on people,

该句暂无译文!

2 .based on their online search habits ...

该句暂无译文!

3 .you know, there's been a bit in the news lately.

该句暂无译文!

4 .I guess that's pertinent.

该句暂无译文!

第二段

1 .That's right, it's all part of this same issue.

该句暂无译文!

2 .The search engines actually gather a huge amount of data about computer users,

该句暂无译文!

3 .and some of it is definitely sold to other paying customers.

该句暂无译文!

4 .The database companies sell lists to direct-marketing companies, for example.

该句暂无译文!

5 .That's their core business, so they're always trying to access more information in order to attract new clients and improve their profitability.

该句暂无译文!

第三段

1 .Hmm. What about social networking sites?

该句暂无译文!

2 .How much of that information is truly private?

该句暂无译文!

第四段

1 .Not a lot, it seems.

该句暂无译文!

2 .And hackers can download sensitive information and misuse it as well.

该句暂无译文!

3 .Also, every time you fill out an online form or survey to enter a prize draw, you're compromising your privacy.

该句暂无译文!

第五段

1 .I never thought about that.

该句暂无译文!

2 .I often enter those, and give my email address and mobile number.

该句暂无译文!

第六段

1 .Well, apparently in Europe they have laws controlling the ability of companies to sell or share people's personal data without getting explicit consent.

该句暂无译文!

2 .But that's not the case here.

该句暂无译文!

3 .Then that could be our main recommendation.

该句暂无译文!

第七段

1 .Yes - and then we can advise people to actually purchase their own credit reports and files from a few of the big database cmpanies,

该句暂无译文!

2 .to check that the information stored on them is actually accurate.

该句暂无译文!

第八段

1 .It's so frustrating to have to do something like that!

该句暂无译文!

第九段

1 .For sure. Also bloggers should be very cautious - they can be sued for breaches of privacy and for libel.

该句暂无译文!

2 .Even Twitter comments aren't exempt from legal action.

该句暂无译文!

3 .So that's another area to consider for suggestions.

该句暂无译文!

4 .Anyway, we need to decide how to split this up.

该句暂无译文!

5 .How about if one of us does an overview of the general issue and the history of it all to date?

该句暂无译文!

第十段

1 .I think I might tackle that.

该句暂无译文!

2 .You'd better on the technical stuff.

该句暂无译文!

3 .Great. Then I'll look at new development and make policy recommendations.

该句暂无译文!

4 .For example, there are technology researchers looking at how access to files and information can be restricted.

该句暂无译文!

5 .Because, you know,

该句暂无译文!

6 .originally the Internet was designed to be as open as possible...

该句暂无译文!

第十一段

1 .That's right. And instead, it's created a real conflict.

该句暂无译文!

第十二段

1 .Already some of the browser companies are working on solutions to this - such as offering a tracking protection feature that users can switch on,

该句暂无译文!

2 .to restrict how much data can be mined from their computer use.

该句暂无译文!

3 .And there are a few other ideas out there as well...

该句暂无译文!

第十三段

1 .And about the question slot...

该句暂无译文!

2 .I seem to remember Professor Duncan suggesting we prepare a couple of question ourselves,

该句暂无译文!

3 .in case no one asks anything.

该句暂无译文!

第十四段

1 .Hmm, I guess that's a good idea.

该句暂无译文!
