According to wikipedia, the term privacy means “the ability of an individual or group to seclude themselves, or information about themselves, and thereby express themselves selectively”. Now the question is do we have the choice for our privacy? 

With the advancement of technology our privacy has degraded; the more technology advances the more our privacy degraded. But most of us are unaware of it, we only enjoys the only one side of technology, the other part is not discussed much. Our privacy is in vulnerable position. Today we don’t have any choice to make our lives private. Day and night our every action is being recorded and saved in a giant database which you can never erase. 

Now the question is who is doing this and why? The answer is almost every big IT companies and the reason that they want to encash your emotions and feelings. 

Most of the time we simply agree with every terms and conditions while creating online accounts without reading it. Google clearly states in their privacy policy that they collect personal informal from their user and if you are an android phone user your every single activity is being recorded by Google and every single activity means every single taps ans swipes.  It’s not only about the Google, Facebook and other companies also collect most of our data for their profit without caring about our privacy.

Our privacy is not only violated by major IT companies only,  the government agency on the name of national security get into our every electronic gadget and can control it without our knowledge. I have no idea about Indian agency but according the American Whistle-Blower Edward Snowden the National Security Agency (NSA) of America can even access your camera or microphone of your mobile phone without your knowledge. Isn’t it so disgusting, imaging you are in bedroom and your phone is kept next to you and someone is watching all your activity and can also listen your conversation. Yes, thats possible. 

Our digital age is going to be way more advanced than what we have today.
