With all the data breaches, high profile hackers, and ominously long terms of service agreements out there, sometimes it can feel like online privacy is a fleeting thing. A recent Pew Research Center report details how Americans feel about the security of their personal information and the lengths they go to to secure it.
According to the report, Americans do not feel in control of their personal information online and indeed feel a deep lack of confidence in the companies and organizations that collect such information. The report includes survey responses related to government surveillance in addition to consumer and social media services.
