Pinning our faith on Big Brother ... together with all the little brothers?

The report presents the results of a representative survey on the population’s attitude towards and knowledge of the protection of personal privacy. The population has strong trust that privacy is protected in a good way, and it is not particularly worried that personal data can be misused. A large part does not reflect at all over the fact that personal data on them is collected or they do not bother themselves with that. This also applies to those who say that they do not trust that personal privacy is so well protected that one can safely disclose personal data. Many of us disclose data that we actually do not wish to disclose. This gives reason to ask how well we guard our own personal privacy.
