highlights New data privacy revelations have continued to fan the
original NSA-fire over recent months. Businesses in the US are

the need for global protection, provide tips on what your organisation
should be doing, and explore current legislation around the world. And
we want to know what you think -- Is it time for an international law

13 Quotes: What is curiosity
There are two sorts of curiosity -- the momentary and the
permanent. The momentary is concerned with the odd appearance on the
surface of things. The permanent is attracted by the amazing and
consecutive life that flows on beneath the surface of things.
-- Robert Lynd
