When I read the article Snooping Bosses by Kristina Dell and Lisa Takeuchi Cullen I wasn’t surprised. Today there is a technical possibility to gather a lot of information about a person, you can’t hide your traces is everywhere; your phone, your credit card and so on. Your boss wants you to work, he pays you for it. So is it ok for him to check you up? I think so. I have got no secrets at work I’m doing my work and I’m hoping that my colleagues does the same. He can read my emails at my work computer and listens to my phone calls if he doesn’t think that I’m working, it is ok for me. He can check if I’m at home when I’m calling sick it also ok. I think that is your duty to don’t do things at work that needs to be checked up. The only thing I want back is when the clock turns five am I no longer in service and then he isn’t allowed to check me up.
When I look at the prossibility to gather information about people I think that it the fact that you can’t hide is good, when it comes to people who commits crime for an example. Last year in Örebro a rapist was free. They say that 16 girls had to meet him before the police caught him. The caught him when he didn’t appeared for his DNA test. The police was going to test every man in the area. If there was a database with every person’s DNA available for the police they could have caught him after the first girl. It could have saved 15 girls. Does it harm you if your DNA is at the police, as much as it should harm your daughter if she was raped? I don’t think so. I think that’s good. It’s for my own safety. They can take my DNA. As long as it’s for a purpose that is good for me and others they can listen to my calls or trace where I am.
We share a lot of information about ourselves on the anyway. We don’t care about our privacy especially much at the internet. We become member on communities and fill in all the information they ask for without even reading the license agreements, or do you? I don’t. It is possible to trace me at the internet; what I do, what I read and when I know that. I have no idea about how it works but I know that it is possible. Maybe I should think after one more time before I share myself on the internet. Many people share more than they know about and want. Think about facebook, facebook knows almost everything about you: Your friends, your photos and your communications with your friends. The commercial there is chosen after the person facebook thinks or knows that you are. It scares me because so much of it is perfect for me, things that I want to buy appears on the screen. But I have chosen to join that community and because of that I have chosen to share all that information about myself. No one has forced me.

> Sometimes we happily share and sometimes we get afraid. But what are we afraid of? When we have nothing to hide there is no reason to be afraid. I think of the poor people who have to be snooping on me. How boring. For me it’ is not a problem, they can take my DNA listen to my phone calls if it’s for a good thing, others and mine safety for an example. My safety we are talking about and for me it’s much more important than my privacy. And people who has nothing to do at with my personal life checks me up just because the can let them do, I feel sorry for them who hasn’t got anything more fun to do.
