can we collaborate more closely than dividing up the project and each writing our own piece and linking them together

do any of us have a right to claim something we made as a group?

• want credit
• don't want people taking what you wrote
• easily and clearly defined ownership is the basis of capitalism

Privacy (collaborative thoughts):

• buying thing over the internet--identity theft
• companies trading your personal information
• your right to privacy ends where other people's right to information begins
• people see this as much more important than other kinds of regulation
• if we share private thoughts will there be negative consequences
• how much privacy do you want to have
• on-line world collides with the real world
  

we should be able to have as much privacy as we want, but we need to recognize that worlds aren't separate and consider access and rights to information others have.

privacy=freedom from public attention

privacy and shared information pull in opposite directions
