Instructions This assignment will combine together with the content in the Term Paper Uniqueness assignment to give you some exposure as to how your information is bought and sold and how unregulated this field is.
Your assignment this week is to see how much information there is out there on the internet about you. The attached form gives you some tools to use as well as for the information you can look for. The form is for your reference only, the content in it will not be turned in for this assignment. This assignment should be done on your personal computer and not on your work computer.
Your goal is to see what is out there on you, what does your digital self look like? What does the internet know about you? Fill in the profile form with the information you can find online ONLY, i.e. do not put information in the form if it can not be found online. This exercise should take you about 2-4 hours.
For your assignment submission, you simply need to give a list of the fields you were able to fill out with online information. Then combine the information you got from the Final Paper Uniqueness and provide a wrap-up of approximately 3-5 pages, describing your thoughts about the information you received in the results from both activities as well as the results when you combine the results.
Finally, you will need to look back through the assignments, readings, discussions, etc and answer two questions. First, are there any laws that you learned about in this class that should have protected the information you found? Second, what laws should be re-written to provide you with better protections against the information you found? This should be a 1-2 page addition to your paper.
