Exercise 18

Privacy. SeeYou, Inc., is an online social network. SeeYou's members develop personalized profiles to interact and share information-photos, videos, stories, activity updates, and other items-with other members. Members post the information that they want to share and decide with whom they want to share it. SeeYou launched a program to allow members to share with others what they do elsewhere online. For example, if a member rents a movie through Netflix, SeeYou will broadcast that information to everyone in the member's online network. How can SeeYou avoid complaints that this program violates its members' privacy? (See page 189.)
