1 .Sure, fine by me.
该句暂无译文！
2 .So, we've got to do a combined presentation, with at least 20 slides and a recommendation at the end.
该句暂无译文！
3 .Is that right?
该句暂无译文！
第四段

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3 .credit rating, medical history - a range of statistics and stuff that is often out of date or is only partially true.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