Public Security And Individual Privacy Are Not Anththetical
Where do you live? In a house? Where else do you live? And where do you work? How much time do you spend looking at a computer screen? Don't you also live part of your life, and experience a significant part of your world, through that little window? If so, then is that window on your world as open as your access to the physical world is open? Or, is it controlled?
If your physical world--your home, your kids’ schools, your neighborhood, etc--consisted of images and words that were controlled by large distant organizations, you would assert your right to be free of such manipulation, wouldn't you? After all, our freedom comes from our willingness to assert our right to freedom.
Wes Kussmaul, founder of the company that popularized the Internet and author of Quiet Enjoyment, directs his newest work towards Privacy Activists everywhere. Learn how to protect yourself, your family, your community, and most of all your privacy, with THE solution to today’s “broken” internet.
What the experts say:
“Read this book” --Dan Geer, CTO Verdaysys and noted security expert
“Quiet Enjoyment. That’s the legal name for the right we have to use our home and our business premises as we see fit, as long as we don’t bother others in doing so. Wes Kussmaul brought the internet into our homes and businesses when he founded Delphi. Today, the concept of Quiet Enjoyment gets lost when you spend 20 minutes a day getting rid of spam, and even more time in fear of contracting a virus. The worst thing is, the cops don’t even know who the bad guys are.” --Chris Hynes, founding partner, Hastings Equity Partners; former Executive VP, State Street Bank & Trust Company; co-founder of the FIX Financial Transaction Protocol.
“Wes Kussmaul has produced some phenomenal works in the area of privacy, trust, and authentication. His work is important in this age of dramatic insecurity and The Quiet Enjoyment Infrastructure provides a comprehensive and workable framework for a better digital future. Kussmaul is one to listen to!” --Noam Eppel, Senior Security Consultant, Vivica Information Security, Inc.
