Your hard drive may be home to spy ware, programs that monitor your surfing habits and send off your personal data. Case in point, Gator, a digital wallet that remembers your passwords1, but once installed, Gator sends your browsing habits to advertisers to know what websites you like and what type of ad should pop up on your screen.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE
It seems that about one out of ten computers has Gator, another one out of ten might have another program that’s similar. In all told, computers in public places perhaps a quarter, to even a half, have one or another of these programs installed2. It knows every website you’ve been to, in what order, on what days. Gator knows your zip code and, of course, also your name and address, phone number and email. If you’re asked whether you’d like to install something, and you’re not quite sure, the safe answer is always no.

Spy ware isn’t new, but it’s gaining ground. According to Gardener G2 more than 20 million people have spy ware sitting on their systems.

你的硬盘中可能装有间谍软件，它监视你的网上冲浪习惯，发送你的个人数据。Gator是个绝好的例子，这个可以记住你密码的数字钱夹一旦安装，就会给广告客户发送你的浏览习惯，用以获知你喜欢哪些网站，以及应该在你的屏幕上弹出什么类型的广告。

看起来大约十分之一的计算机装有Gator，还有另外十分之一的计算机装有类似的程序。总之，公共场所的计算机或许有四分之一、甚至一半安装有此类程序。它可以知道你去过的每一个网站、访问的顺序和日期。Gator知道你的邮政编码，当然还有你的名字和地址、电话号码和电子邮件。 如果你被问及是否愿意安装一些东西，而你又不十分确定的话，安全的回答总是：否。

间谍软件并不是新东西，但它正在广泛应用。 据Gardener G2调查，超过两千万的系统装有间谍软件。
隐私与网络：Google拒绝与*合作
Google's refusal to cooperate with governmental authorities who are asking for the company's search records could become a catalyst for a major discussion about privacy and Internet use.
The Justice Department had asked a federal judge to issue Google an order to turn over search-engine data as part of an effort to revive an online pornography law.
Google was first served a subpoena in August, but refused to comply with a request to turn over a considerable amount of requested material.
Although the issue is not expected to be resolved until March, it has sparked considerable discussion among privacy groups and child-safety advocates, touching on issues such as identity protection, free speech, and child protection.

A lot of smartphone apps can help you out if you let them access your phone's GPS. But even if you give permission, do you know everything they're doing with that information?
Some computer scientists wanted to find out. So they modified the Android mobile phone platform to tag all data apps sent from the phone. Then they randomly selected 30 of the most popular Android apps, choosing only ones that require access to the Internet and access to the phone's GPS, camera or microphone. And they played with them, all while tracking the data each app sent out.
Turns out 15—half the apps—sent the phone's location to third-party advertisers. Two apps did present user agreements—but they said nothing about sending that data. And a third of the apps revealed the phone's unique ID, sometimes along with the phone number and SIM card serial number. The findings will be presented at an upcoming USENIX Symposium. [William Enck et al., TaintDroid: An Information-Flow Tracking System for Realtime Privacy Monitoring on Smartphones]
The researchers won't say which apps committed the worst offenses. But there’s a good chance you could have some of the apps on your smartphone. And if one of them asks for your location, you can opt to have it mind its own business instead of yours.
