Since the famous Warren and Brandeis essay nearly a century ago, the confusion generated by the traditional account of "privacy" continues to obstruct its satisfactory legal protection. Looking at the issues of breach of confidence, public disclosure of private facts, collection and computerization of personal data, and electronic or other intrusions on individual privacy, Wacks here presents a less obscure, alternative analysis of privacy that is centered on the use and misuse of "personal information" about an individual.
