Whistleblowing and Sarbanes–Oxley Due If something happens in the organization, for example, a worker is thought to be engaged in illegal activities,
then a whistleblower reports on this to the legal institution. As a rule, a whistleblower is an employee, so to encourage him/her to disclose the
information and to assure that one is making a right step the Whistleblower Protection Act was adopted (Ethics and corporate social responsibility,
2009). The things whistleblowers do are very serious. One should always remember that such actions may lead to the loss of money and ... Show more

334). After this had happened, Franks fired Lane. Lane claimed this to be retaliation and sued him. The Federal District Court supported Franks. The
Eleventh Circuit held that there was no remedy when the employee was fired in revenge "for turning in a "no show" office holder who was tried,
convicted and imprisoned" (Schweitzer, 2015, p. 333). However, the Court rejected this statement as in the majority of cases there was a broader
protection of the free speech rights of public workers. Lane's actions led to his dismissal and attracted the public attention to the case of corruption. The
lower courts claimed that Lane did not experience the irrevocable mistake, and the testimony against Schmitz was a part of his official duties and was
not related to public concern. Section 806 of Sarbanes–Oxley Act (SOX) protects whistleblowers who can prove the act of fraud and are employees of
public companies. It is forbidden for any other employees of the organization to be engaged in retaliation (Martin, Hoffman, & Casey, 2004).
Unfortunately, the employee is not defined in the Act; thus, the defendant was able to find a loophole and won an action.

Essay On Whistleblower Protection Act
Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2012
Introduction
Often the debate arises of whether human–beings are born with an innate sense of "right–from–wrong" and most often the consensus is, yes. The later
question might then be, what makes a person question doing the right thing? In the reality of someone who may be labeled a "whistleblower,"
apprehension to report wrongdoings may reasonably come from fear of retaliation. Particularly when the wrong–doing is occurring within the federal
government and/or secret intelligence community. Who will stand up to these powers and what protection can policy afford those that take the ultimate

with children and young people, in particular within the working environment, as it helps establish and maintain clear boundaries for the adolescents

Censorship And The Media Of Censorship
Privacy is viewed differently by different people, the same can be said about censorship. Censorship and privacy do not solely revolve around leaks and
personal intrusions from foreign entities. The advent of social media and cell phones have created new avenues for people to communicate and share
information; The internet provides people a new and global way to spread information that can be considered worthy of censorship. Many people I
know argue that censorship should not be commonplace in the media, in social media, or even in the entire Internet. Public's right to privacy and
censorship awareness is a very real thing we should come to realize and analyze. Censorship affects the public in very real ways, it can both aid and
deter the spread of propaganda. People need to consider what type of information is being spread through these outlets. Focused on how people
perceived as such actions with fear and uneasiness, it's fair to note that contrast between censoring and right to freely spread information. It can lead to
an increase in violation claims from those attitudes. If people feel uncertain about the benefits of censorship, then they are more willing to point out the
flaws in it. The public's view towards the subject matter greatly influences on how well the issue is addressed in society. It's not only federal and state
institutions that may participate in censoring what goes on the internet, nor is it just the media putting a spin to spread entertaining

Thankfully, there are a number of ways to do this, including: encrypting data, securing websites, securing IT systems and wireless networks, and
providing adequate training to all employees regarding the safe transmission, handling, and disposal of information (Steve Pain, 2007). The improper
disposal of information and the breach of confidentiality have been in the news on a regular basis. This has ranged from employees improperly
throwing out customer files, to laptops being stolen, to hard–drives not being properly "wiped" or erased. More often than not, it is reported that these
items contained customer social security numbers and financial records.
According to the British Security Industry Association, "companies should be learning lessons about the importance of protecting confidential
information." (Steve Pain, 2007, para. 7). In fact, compliance with the Data Protection Act is imperative and non–compliance could result in

Computer Access and Information Storage
Executive Summary
Computer access and information storage has drastically evolved with the increase of computer usage and internet access across a wide range of areas
including homes, businesses, schools and government departments. These changes make requirements for more specific laws to regulate the use of
computers and storage of data as well as new forensic techniques and tools to investigate such offences.
Following this, computer forensic investigators are becoming a necessity for lawyers and barristers as support in both criminal and civil proceedings.
What legislation exists in Ireland to handle computer crime?
Ireland does not have exclusive law that would deal with computer crime as such, but has two laws that can handle computer crimes. Criminal Damage
Act 1991 (the "1991 Act") deals with principal offences in section 2 and section 5 while Criminal Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences) Act, 2001 (the

Data Protection and Customer Privacy
The media, trade bodies and academia has created a large buzz around the Data Protection and customers' privacy in the recent years. The consequences
of the issue raised are different legislation policies, self–regulation, and general confusion. In order to be discussed, this controversial topic should be
looked at from two different perspectives: customers' one and direct marketers' one. From customers' point of view, direct marketing is undoubtedly an
invasion of their privacy. Consumers feel intimidated by the direct marketing campaigns that 'fire' them with different types of unwanted printed and
online media daily. Further, many of them are being concerned about their personal information being so easily available which makes them feel
vulnerable. On the other side are direct marketers who put a lot of effort in their attempts to engage the audience and build/maintain relationships with
them. Moreover, practitioners believe that they are targeting the best prospects and best customers (rather than uninterested people) who are willing to
buy the products offered and are happy to receive up–to–date information about them. Thus, it has been assumed that marketers see themselves as
assistants who help people in choosing the best deals available whereas customers feel like victims rather than catered for.

Whistleblowers Research Paper
It is popularly believed, even by presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, that whistleblowers only break promises of the nation, and release critically
secret information to the everyday public. Many believe that they should be punished for this violation of secrecy. Yet, perhaps what they release could
be saving the country and government. Secrets in government of war and finances can be detrimental to the health of the United States of America from
the spread of conspiracy theories and due to the fact that the government, which should be protecting the people, is sneaking behind citizen's backs and
making their own worldwide decisions. Whistleblowers are needed to create a prosperous and stable country if our government is going to be this
corrupt with their secrets.
Corruption with government secrets is a main topic as to why whistleblowers are needed. There is a fine line between what the government needs to
hold and what the government should share, but it is popularly believed that the government needs to release more so it can actually feel like the people
get their own say. Whistleblowers don't just believe that there are huge amounts of secrets that need to be released, but they only say what must be said.

Plaintiffs claimed that constitutionally protected materials were wrongly blocked and that the Loudoun Policy violated their First Amendment rights.
The court agreed and found the Loudoun Policy of filtering for all patrons unconstitutional. The court held that there were less restrictive means
available to achieve the privacy level demanded by the Loudoun County community than interfering with free speech. Less restrictive, in the court's
opinion, were privacy screens for computer monitors and a certain degree of physical monitoring by library staff.
Congress made an attempt to place content–based restrictions on school and public library internet use in the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA)
of 2000. This act requires the use of some type of internet filtering software for all public libraries that attain funds from the Federal government (in the
form of E–rate discounts or Library Services and Technology Act grants). Should a library refuse to comply with CIPA guidelines, that library would
have to maintain its technological services without the government discount or LSTA grants. Holding to the CIPA guidelines, both the E–rate and LSTA

The Justification Of The Nsa Unlawful Spying Activities
The justifications provided for the leakage of the NSA unlawful spying activities also support the argument that Snowman's act was permissible. For
instance, Snowden justifies his act by stating that he relied on the U.S Constitution, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as well as the 1945
Nuremberg declaration. He provides his explanation for his shift from the his earlier held philosophy of nationalism by noting that people have an
international duty that surpasses their national obligations of loyalty, (Scheuerman, 2014). He further expounds that sometimes national loyalty leads to
national relativism whereby people overlook their country's evils, instead preferring to focus on distant and external evils.
Generally, intelligence systems are extensively concealed, which exposes them to potential abuse by those in charge. This results in abuse of human
rights such as privacy rights that is detrimental to the very security that such systems ought to safeguard. As such, blowing the whistle on such activities
can be an effective mechanism of exposing the ills that characterize intelligence systems. Furthermore, Scheurman (2014) argues that a requirement for

Protection for Whistleblowers in Malaysia
1.0 Introduction
Legislative protection in Malaysia of whistleblowers is not an entirely new concept. Legislation mandating personnel to disclose the existence of
offences involving fraud or dishonesty, and the attendant legal protections, already exist in certain sectors.
The Whistleblower Protection Act 2010 ("WPA"), which came into force on 15 December 2010, is intended to provide all–encompassing protection to
the private and public sectors. One of the WPA's key objectives is to fill in the gaps left by the said sectored–specific legislation. The objective of this
act is to give safeguard to the whistleblower in the form of confidentiality of their information, immunity from civil and malefactor action and
safeguard from detrimental action being taken against them. Whistleblower protection is one of the Malaysian Government's efforts towards tackling
corruption and promoting good governance under Regime Transformation Programme (GTP).
The WPA is also a key legislative initiative to combat corruption by facilitating protected disclosures through immunity from civil and criminal actions,
confidentiality of information disclosed and protection from retaliatory action. The WPA will, for the first time, introduce employment–specific
criminal liability for retaliatory action taken at the workplace. Employers in Malaysia should therefore review and, if necessary, implement appropriate
revisions to their existing whistleblower policies.

All aspects of internet filters will be discussed including who chooses to use filtering software, why these groups use filters, how an internet content

There are many different groups that choose to implement internet filtering software on computers that they own. Among these groups are libraries,
schools, employers, and parents. In December of 2000, the United States Congress passed the Children's Internet Protection Act (CHIPA), which is
legislation that forced public and private libraries as well as schools that are federally funded through certain federal programs to install internet content
blocking software for both child and adult users alike. If libraries and schools that chose to implement the internet blocking technology on their
computers were compensated or benefited monetarily through additional government subsidy would have been fine, but when the government is
federally mandating censorship it is a direct violation of individuals' rights to free speech and expression guaranteed by the first amendment of the Bill
of Rights to the Constitution of the United States of America. In an educational organizations' letter to legislation, a strong opposition was expressed

Whistleblowing Legislation And Its Role Of Corporate...
Whistleblowing Legislation and Its Role In Corporate Governance
Whistleblowing occurs when an employee, contractor or supplier goes outside the normal management channels to report suspected wrongdoing at
work. A study indicates that no specific actor dominates the revelation of fraud: "short sellers and equity holders revealed the fraud in 9% of the cases;
financial analysts and auditors revealed 14% each; the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") accounted for 6%; the media accounted for 14%;
non–financial market regulators 16%; and employees (whistleblowers) accounted for 19%. The United States enacted sweeping legislation to protect
whistleblowers after a series of corporate scandals, but more is needed. Since whistleblowing plays an important role in the corporate regulatory
scheme, this paper will explore policies needed for a more effective corporate governance.
Events Leading to the Enactment of Legislation The events that led to legislative action from Congress were the Enron and WorldCom scandals. Enron
Corporation was an American energy company based in Houston, Texas which originally was solely a natural gas provider which then evolved into one
of the world's major energy–commodity traders. On August 2001, Sherron Watkins, the Vice President of Enron at the time, alerted the then–CEO Ken

seen as legitimate and significant by trustworthy colleagues and friends? Is the whistleblower aware of the potential consequences of blowing the
whistle and still willing to accept responsibility for actions taken?
Unfortunately, during most of this century many people equated whistleblowers with tattle tales. For instance, until the early 1980s, legal indices often
listed the law of whistleblowing under the word "snitch" or "informant." During the Nixon era, much of that negative attitude changed. With the advent
of Watergate, the public began to recognize the service whistleblowers were providing to taxpayers at great risk to themselves.
Further, whistleblowing impacts not just the whistleblower but also their family and friends. Although whistleblowers have many different

Information that needs to be recorded should always be written in a legible manner.
Legible means clear, readable and understandable. It could be harmful to an individual if other people cannot read what you have written, for example
in a care plan about the way the individual is feeling.
Records must always be factual and not an opinion. They should include the correct date and a full signature of the person writing the record. It is also
recommended to use black ink. Some documents will only accept black ink. Information must not be crossed out, or covered using correction fluid.
Always record any information given to you by an individual even if you think it is trivial because it might help someone else. Always check an

Censorship in Libraries and Schools
What would you do if you went to your child's school and saw that they were looking at inappropriate material on the internet? Would you react the

I would be willing to give up some information about myself to help protect the young children in our country.
Since there has not been a ruling in this case, the supporters of the censorship laws had to try and find a way to get the internet censored to children. So
in the year 2000, Congress passed the Children's Internet Protection Act, which is aimed at the computers in the schools and libraries that the children
would have access to. This law was limited to "only the schools and libraries that participated in certain federal programs such as, receiving federal
money for technology". The schools and libraries that received this money were required to "install filtering software on all internet terminals to block
access to sites with child pornography, obscene material, and material that is harmful to minors". My opinion on this law is that it is even better than the
firs one. They are very similar, as you can tell from their names, there is very little changed in the names of the laws. I think that the sites that a minor
can look at should be filtered. This way they cannot look at things that can be harmful to them.
Of course the supporters of the First Amendment opposed this law. They opposed this law because the filtering systems could filter out things that could
be educational, or used for health research. There will always be problems with filters; they will either filter too much or not enough material. This is

Whistleblowing
History of Whistleblowing
The definition of a whistleblower is a past or pesent employee or member of an organization, who reports misconduct to people or entities that have the
power and presumed willingness to take corrective action, or to notify the general public of wrongdoing. In most cases, whistleblowers are employees
of the ogranization but can be employees of government agencies as well. Normally the misconduct being reported is a violation of law, rule, regulation
and/or a direct threat to public interest such as fraud, health, safety violations, and corruption. The word whistleblower originates from the old practice
of English bobbies who would blow their whistle when they noticed a crime that was being committed. The blowing ... Show more content on

violations of federal and state law, it revealed the involvement, complicity and active participation in fraud by many renowned physicians, and it

Another benefit is that it allows the office to operate in a smaller environment, because a great deal of space is not required for storing documents in a

Two Essential Items of UK Legislation relating to Recording and Storing HR Data
1) Data Protection Act 1998
The Data Protection Act 1998 applies to all personnel records, whether held in paper or computerised format. Under the Data Protection Act, data must
not be kept longer than is necessary unless it's for a particular purpose.
Computerised systems are covered by the law, as are certain manual systems. To be covered, manual systems must be organised into a 'relevant filing
system'.
Subject to certain exceptions as detailed in Schedule 7 of the Data Protection Act, employees have the right to access their records and the employer is
under an obligation to ensure that the data is accurate. Before releasing such data to a third party, the employer must seek the permission of the
individual concerned.
The Information Commissioner has issued an Employment Practices Data Protection Code in four parts:

This assignment will explain the role of policies and procedures in helping children, young people and their families.
Policies and procedures are set of guidelines and rules put in place by the government to ensure the safety of children and young people while they are
in care. It is important that anyone working with children and young people is fully aware of policies and procedures put in place in their setting and
also aware of their role in implementing these policies and procedures. Policies and procedures definite what an organisation does and how they do it in
order to provide a safe environment for children and young people during their time in care.
Every Child Matters 2003 consider the well being of children and young people from birth to the age of 19. The law has five principles that provide a
safe environment for children and young people while they are in care. The five outcomes ensure children's and young people's needs are met and have
the support they need to be healthy: to be safe, to enjoy and achieve, make a positive contribution and achieve economic well–being. The law ensures
that every child is mentally, emotionally and physically fit and obtaining the care that meets their needs. For example, in children's residential home
children will be encourage to eat a healthy balance diet. By providing a nutritious diet for the child the residential workers are meeting the child's right

The possibility of qualifying for a significant whistleblowing award has been incentivizing some employees to bypass internal reporting controls in
favor of reporting directly to the SEC. Corporate attorneys have to deal with employees that choose to bypass internal reporting and compliance and
must also adapt with the changing landscape of whistleblower law to make sure they are protecting the company without violating employee rights. In–
house attorneys face a dynamic workplace environment as protections for whistleblowers continue to expand. One way courts may expand these
protections is by relaxing the requisite specificity of whistleblower claims. In Sylvester v. Parexel Int'l, Inc., the Administrative Review Board (ARB)
reversed a line of decisions requiring the allegation in a SOX whistleblower claim to "definitively and specifically" relate to shareholder fraud. The
ARB noted that the heightened pleading standards for complaints filed in federal court, as established by the Supreme Court's holdings in Bell Atlantic
Corp. v. Twombly and Ashcroft v. Iqbal, do not apply to SOX whistleblowing complaints. Instead, SOX complaints begin with the Occupational Safety

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 is an act of the United Kingdom (UK) Parliament defining the ways in which the public may obtain access to
government–held information. The intent is to allow private individuals and corporations reasonable access to information while minimizing the risk of
harm to any entity. The concept was first put forward in 1997, was passed in 2000 and came into full effect in 2005.
Conclusion
In summary, I have identified that data collated by Human Resources plays an important part in any organisation.
The two main methods of storage are manual and electronic, both methods having their own benefits. The data can be used for analysis to assist the

The Children Act of 1989 introduced comprehensive and wide reaching changes to the legislation in England and Wales, which directly affected the
wellbeing and welfare of children and young people. It remains an important piece of legislation as it's main focus is safeguarding children and the
roles and responsibilities of the local authorities.
The Every Child Matters Guidelines led to the Children Act of 2004, a revision of The Children Act 1989, as a direct result of the death of Victoria

108 recommendations for change to the piece of legislation were made in order to improve child protection and safeguarding within the United

But after realizing that companies can't govern themselves since the allure of profits from selling consumer information they collect to other agencies is
so great, the FTC has had a change of mind and is now promoting the effort of government regulation of protection of privacy of consumer data. Now
this brings up a good question. What has the FTC done to promote standards/regulations to protect consumer privacy data and what are the punishments
for not complying with those standards and regulations. The FTC had advised congress on enacting laws to protect consumer privacy. Some of those
laws are the Children's' Privacy Protection Act of 1998, Gramm–Leach–Bliley Financial Modernization Act (GLBA), Cable Communications Policy

accordingly, with the guards wearing a uniform with mirrored sunglasses which promotes anonymity as their emotions are obscured, but yet denotes
their position of power and authority. According to Zimbardo (2000) these 'conditions of deindividuation' allow for the facilitation of evil. Subsequently
it becomes acceptable to enforce measures which degrade prisoners of their self–respect, including being stripped, deloused and ordered to carry a

Employee monitoring has been on the rise since the boost for technology in the business world. Different Organizations engage in monitoring of

practices are not upheld by employees because of the downfall it has on their satisfaction of privacy. Employers typically must not show some of their

rights. There is a debate raging on whether it is moral, ethical and legal for employers to monitor the actions of their employees. Employer's believe that
monitoring is a sure thing because it encourages positive behavior and discourage illicit activity and to limit liability. Although, with this problem of

As a rule, a whistleblower is an employee, so to encourage him/her to disclose the information and to assure that one is making a right step the Whistleblower Protection Act was adopted (Ethics and corporate social responsibility, 2009).

After this had happened, Franks fired Lane. Lane claimed this to be retaliation and sued him. The Federal District Court supported Franks. The Eleventh Circuit held that there was no remedy when the employee was fired in revenge "for turning in a "no show" office holder who was tried, convicted and imprisoned" (Schweitzer, 2015, p. 333). However, the Court rejected this statement as in the majority of cases there was a broader protection of the free speech rights of public workers. Lane's actions led to his dismissal and attracted the public attention to the case of corruption. The lower courts claimed that Lane did not experience the irrevocable mistake, and the testimony against Schmitz was a part of his official duties and was not related to public concern. Section 806 of Sarbanes–Oxley Act (SOX) protects whistleblowers who can prove the act of fraud and are employees of public companies. It is forbidden for any other employees of the organization to be engaged in retaliation (Martin, Hoffman, & Casey, 2004). Unfortunately, the employee is not defined in the Act; thus, the defendant was able to find a loophole and won an action. References Ethics and corporate social responsibility. (2009).

The later question might then be, what makes a person question doing the right thing? In the reality of someone who may be labeled a "whistleblower," apprehension to report wrongdoings may reasonably come from fear of retaliation. Particularly when the wrong–doing is occurring within the federal government and/or secret intelligence community.

Communication and Professional Relationships with Children, Young People and Adults TDA 3.1 1.1 Effective communication is vital when dealing with children and young people, in particular within the working environment, as it helps establish and maintain clear boundaries for the adolescents who are being dealt with. For example; if a young person is corrected on a behaviour that is negative, such as swearing, they need to see that staff follow the same rule, and that staff lead by example. Otherwise, they will see this as a contradiction of rules and will therefore lead to resentment and double standards.

Maintain conversation – children learn through experience, so ensure the conversation follows the 'norm' as it will be good practice for the future.

  • 9. Censorship And The Media Of Censorship Privacy is viewed differently by different people, the same can be said about censorship. Censorship and privacy do not solely revolve around leaks and personal intrusions from foreign entities. The advent of social media and cell phones have created new avenues for people to communicate and share information; The internet provides people a new and global way to spread information that can be considered worthy of censorship. Many people I know argue that censorship should not be commonplace in the media, in social media, or even in the entire Internet. Public's right to privacy and censorship awareness is a very real thing we should come to realize and analyze. Censorship affects the public in very real ways, it can both aid and deter the spread of propaganda. People need to consider what type of information is being spread through these outlets. Focused on how people perceived as such actions with fear and uneasiness, it's fair to note that contrast between censoring and right to freely spread information. It can lead to an increase in violation claims from those attitudes. If people feel uncertain about the benefits of censorship, then they are more willing to point out the flaws in it. The public's view towards the subject matter greatly influences on how well the issue is addressed in society.

This includes protecting the data again hackers by developing and maintaining. Thankfully, there are a number of ways to do this, including: encrypting data, securing websites, securing IT systems and wireless networks, and providing adequate training to all employees regarding the safe transmission, handling, and disposal of information (Steve Pain, 2007). The improper disposal of information and the breach of confidentiality have been in the news on a regular basis. This has ranged from employees improperly throwing out customer files, to laptops being stolen, to hard–drives not being properly "wiped" or erased. More often than not, it is reported that these items contained customer social security numbers and financial records. According to the British Security Industry Association, "companies should be learning lessons about the importance of protecting confidential information." (Steve Pain, 2007, para. 7). In fact, compliance with the Data Protection Act is imperative and non–compliance could result in prosecution by the Office of Information Commissioner.

  • 17. Computer Access and Information Storage Executive Summary Computer access and information storage has drastically evolved with the increase of computer usage and internet access across a wide range of areas including homes, businesses, schools and government departments. These changes make requirements for more specific laws to regulate the use of computers and storage of data as well as new forensic techniques and tools to investigate such offences. Following this, computer forensic investigators are becoming a necessity for lawyers and barristers as support in both criminal and civil proceedings. What legislation exists in Ireland to handle computer crime? Ireland does not have exclusive law that would deal with computer crime as such, but has two laws that can handle computer crimes. Criminal Damage Act 1991 (the "1991 Act") deals with principal offences in section 2 and section 5 while Criminal Justice (Theft and Fraud Offences) Act, 2001 (the "2001 Act") covers computer related offences in section 9 and section 48. Criminal Damage Act 1991 Section 2 – "(1) A person who without lawful excuse damages any property belonging to another intending to damage any such property or being reckless as to whether any such property would be damaged shall be guilty of an offence." While section 2 above does not call out specific reference to computer related crime, the definition in the statute regarding property does include offences relating to data.

LEARNING OUTCOME 2 BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT GOOD PRACTICE IN HANDLING INFORMATION Records are kept to promote, provide and improve the care provided for patients. They are also used for audits and quality assurance carried out by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Records contain very sensitive personal information; they are regarded as legal documents and are a legal requirement to be kept. All information written in files should always be clear, useful and relevant. Do not include anything irrelevant or opinions that are not backed up by facts. Only the patient whose notes you are writing in should be written about and all entries should be clear, factual and true.

  • 21. Data Protection and Customer Privacy The media, trade bodies and academia has created a large buzz around the Data Protection and customers' privacy in the recent years. The consequences of the issue raised are different legislation policies, self–regulation, and general confusion. In order to be discussed, this controversial topic should be looked at from two different perspectives: customers' one and direct marketers' one. From customers' point of view, direct marketing is undoubtedly an invasion of their privacy. Consumers feel intimidated by the direct marketing campaigns that 'fire' them with different types of unwanted printed and online media daily. Further, many of them are being concerned about their personal information being so easily available which makes them feel vulnerable. On the other side are direct marketers who put a lot of effort in their attempts to engage the audience and build/maintain relationships with them. Moreover, practitioners believe that they are targeting the best prospects and best customers (rather than uninterested people) who are willing to buy the products offered and are happy to receive up–to–date information about them. Thus, it has been assumed that marketers see themselves as assistants who help people in choosing the best deals available whereas customers feel like victims rather than catered for. Customers' concerns about their privacy could be simply splitted up into two parts: unwanted direct marketing approaches and privacy issues. 'Junk mail', 'Spam' emails, ...

Whistleblowers Research Paper It is popularly believed, even by presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, that whistleblowers only break promises of the nation, and release critically secret information to the everyday public. Many believe that they should be punished for this violation of secrecy. Yet, perhaps what they release could be saving the country and government. Secrets in government of war and finances can be detrimental to the health of the United States of America from the spread of conspiracy theories and due to the fact that the government, which should be protecting the people, is sneaking behind citizen's backs and making their own worldwide decisions. Whistleblowers are needed to create a prosperous and stable country if our government is going to be this corrupt with their secrets. Corruption with government secrets is a main topic as to why whistleblowers are needed. There is a fine line between what the government needs to hold and what the government should share, but it is popularly believed that the government needs to release more so it can actually feel like the people get their own say. Whistleblowers don't just believe that there are huge amounts of secrets that need to be released, but they only say what must be said.

The amount of information disseminated on the world wide web is vast, with some sources valuable for scholarly and personal research and entertainment, and some sources that contain material that is objectionable to some (ie. pornography, gambling, hate groups sites, violent materials).

Plaintiffs claimed that constitutionally protected materials were wrongly blocked and that the Loudoun Policy violated their First Amendment rights. The court agreed and found the Loudoun Policy of filtering for all patrons unconstitutional. The court held that there were less restrictive means available to achieve the privacy level demanded by the Loudoun County community than interfering with free speech. Less restrictive, in the court's opinion, were privacy screens for computer monitors and a certain degree of physical monitoring by library staff. Congress made an attempt to place content–based restrictions on school and public library internet use in the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) of 2000. This act requires the use of some type of internet filtering software for all public libraries that attain funds from the Federal government (in the form of E–rate discounts or Library Services and Technology Act grants). Should a library refuse to comply with CIPA guidelines, that library would have to maintain its technological services without the government discount or LSTA grants. Holding to the CIPA guidelines, both the E–rate and LSTA stipulate that filters may be disabled or 'legitimate' sites unblocked by adults who request it, but it is unclear "whether libraries 'must' provide for such disabling" (Anten 79).

  • 29. The Justification Of The Nsa Unlawful Spying Activities The justifications provided for the leakage of the NSA unlawful spying activities also support the argument that Snowman's act was permissible. For instance, Snowden justifies his act by stating that he relied on the U.S Constitution, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as well as the 1945 Nuremberg declaration. He provides his explanation for his shift from the his earlier held philosophy of nationalism by noting that people have an international duty that surpasses their national obligations of loyalty, (Scheuerman, 2014). He further expounds that sometimes national loyalty leads to national relativism whereby people overlook their country's evils, instead preferring to focus on distant and external evils. Generally, intelligence systems are extensively concealed, which exposes them to potential abuse by those in charge. This results in abuse of human rights such as privacy rights that is detrimental to the very security that such systems ought to safeguard. As such, blowing the whistle on such activities can be an effective mechanism of exposing the ills that characterize intelligence systems. Furthermore, Scheurman (2014) argues that a requirement for whistleblower identity disclosure as proposed in Sagar's framework enhances their opportunity to fulfill their obligations to justify their actions. They further state that whistleblower identity disclosure demonstrates civic mindedness. In addition, the disclosure of the whistle–blower's identity helps to prevent ...

Legislation mandating personnel to disclose the existence of offences involving fraud or dishonesty, and the attendant legal protections, already exist in certain sectors. The Whistleblower Protection Act 2010 ("WPA"), which came into force on 15 December 2010, is intended to provide all–encompassing protection to the private and public sectors. One of the WPA's key objectives is to fill in the gaps left by the said sectored–specific legislation. The objective of this act is to give safeguard to the whistleblower in the form of confidentiality of their information, immunity from civil and malefactor action and safeguard from detrimental action being taken against them. Whistleblower protection is one of the Malaysian Government's efforts towards tackling corruption and promoting good governance under Regime Transformation Programme (GTP). The WPA is also a key legislative initiative to combat corruption by facilitating protected disclosures through immunity from civil and criminal actions, confidentiality of information disclosed and protection from retaliatory action. The WPA will, for the first time, introduce employment–specific criminal liability for retaliatory action taken at the workplace. Employers in Malaysia should therefore review and, if necessary, implement appropriate revisions to their existing whistleblower policies. Dworkin & Baucus, Park & ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

All aspects of internet filters will be discussed including who chooses to use filtering software, why these groups use filters, how an internet content filter works, and the pro's and con's of implementing the use of filtering software. There are many different groups that choose to implement internet filtering software on computers that they own. Among these groups are libraries, schools, employers, and parents. In December of 2000, the United States Congress passed the Children's Internet Protection Act (CHIPA), which is legislation that forced public and private libraries as well as schools that are federally funded through certain federal programs to install internet content blocking software for both child and adult users alike. If libraries and schools that chose to implement the internet blocking technology on their computers were compensated or benefited monetarily through additional government subsidy would have been fine, but when the government is federally mandating censorship it is a direct violation of individuals' rights to free speech and expression guaranteed by the first amendment of the Bill of Rights to the Constitution of the United States of America. In an educational organizations' letter to legislation, a strong opposition was expressed regarding the mandated "censorware" in schools and libraries across the nation.

Whistleblowing Legislation and Its Role In Corporate Governance Whistleblowing occurs when an employee, contractor or supplier goes outside the normal management channels to report suspected wrongdoing at work. A study indicates that no specific actor dominates the revelation of fraud: "short sellers and equity holders revealed the fraud in 9% of the cases; financial analysts and auditors revealed 14% each; the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") accounted for 6%; the media accounted for 14%; non–financial market regulators 16%; and employees (whistleblowers) accounted for 19%. The United States enacted sweeping legislation to protect whistleblowers after a series of corporate scandals, but more is needed. Since whistleblowing plays an important role in the corporate regulatory scheme, this paper will explore policies needed for a more effective corporate governance. Events Leading to the Enactment of Legislation The events that led to legislative action from Congress were the Enron and WorldCom scandals. Enron Corporation was an American energy company based in Houston, Texas which originally was solely a natural gas provider which then evolved into one of the world's major energy–commodity traders. On August 2001, Sherron Watkins, the Vice President of Enron at the time, alerted the then–CEO Ken Lay of accounting irregularities.

Is the whistleblower's cause seen as legitimate and significant by trustworthy colleagues and friends? Is the whistleblower aware of the potential consequences of blowing the whistle and still willing to accept responsibility for actions taken? Unfortunately, during most of this century many people equated whistleblowers with tattle tales. For instance, until the early 1980s, legal indices often listed the law of whistleblowing under the word "snitch" or "informant." During the Nixon era, much of that negative attitude changed.

I would be willing to give up some information about myself to help protect the young children in our country. Since there has not been a ruling in this case, the supporters of the censorship laws had to try and find a way to get the internet censored to children. So in the year 2000, Congress passed the Children's Internet Protection Act, which is aimed at the computers in the schools and libraries that the children would have access to. This law was limited to "only the schools and libraries that participated in certain federal programs such as, receiving federal money for technology". The schools and libraries that received this money were required to "install filtering software on all internet terminals to block access to sites with child pornography, obscene material, and material that is harmful to minors". My opinion on this law is that it is even better than the firs one. They are very similar, as you can tell from their names, there is very little changed in the names of the laws. I think that the sites that a minor can look at should be filtered. This way they cannot look at things that can be harmful to them. Of course the supporters of the First Amendment opposed this law.

Guidelines, policies and procedures within England affecting the safeguarding of children and young people. The Children Act of 1989 introduced comprehensive and wide reaching changes to the legislation in England and Wales, which directly affected the wellbeing and welfare of children and young people. It remains an important piece of legislation as it's main focus is safeguarding children and the roles and responsibilities of the local authorities. The Every Child Matters Guidelines led to the Children Act of 2004, a revision of The Children Act 1989, as a direct result of the death of Victoria Climbe`, and the manner in which this was handled. 108 recommendations for change to the piece of legislation were made in order to improve child protection and safeguarding within the United Kingdom.

But after realizing that companies can't govern themselves since the allure of profits from selling consumer information they collect to other agencies is so great, the FTC has had a change of mind and is now promoting the effort of government regulation of protection of privacy of consumer data. Now this brings up a good question. What has the FTC done to promote standards/regulations to protect consumer privacy data and what are the punishments for not complying with those standards and regulations. The FTC had advised congress on enacting laws to protect consumer privacy. Some of those laws are the Children's' Privacy Protection Act of 1998, Gramm–Leach–Bliley Financial Modernization Act (GLBA), Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act of 1994, Driver Privacy Protection Act of 1994, Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, Electronic Fund Transfer Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, and the Federal Privacy Act (Kim). Most of these regulations are predominantly enacted for the public sector in order to prevent illegal gathering of information by government agencies at the federal, state, and local level. It is also the FTC that handles the cases against companies that don't comply with these regulations besides promoting further enhancement of regulations.

I am also covered by the creative commons to take and change an image found on the web. Since there was work completed on the image the final logo can be claimed as my own intellectual property. ST 1.1 Planning involved consideration of navigation method, colour scheme, logo design, favicon design, font choice and site name. Once these had been decided upon I started to gather resources for the project. The first thing that was obtained was the site font, this was found by going to google fonts and searching for stencil. A stencil font was chosen as the website is for booking and finding out about airsoft (a sport like paintball but using plastic pellets instead of paintballs) and therefore this font gave the site a military–esque feel relating back to the military theme. The next consideration to deal with was colour scheme originally a black and brick red colour scheme was chosen but later seeing the site using this scheme it was deemed too dark, I, therefore, opted for an off–white and red colour scheme as this lifted the page ...

Likewise Zimbardo's (1971) experiment, studying the way 'prisoners' and 'guards' interacted, demonstrated similar ethical failings, such as consent gained without individuals being made fully aware of the involvements; physical, emotional and psychological harm subjected; violation of rights, including privacy, respect, confidentiality and the ability to withdraw (). Fascinated by the volume of ordinary individuals who executed terrible things to others during WWII, Zimbardo predicted that all people, even the good, had the potential to conduct malevolence when sited in the correct environment (Haney et al, 1973). In a mock prison participants were recruited to play a role, half as prisoners and the rest as guards. Both were dressed accordingly, with the guards wearing a uniform with mirrored sunglasses which promotes anonymity as their emotions are obscured, but yet denotes their position of power and authority. According to Zimbardo (2000) these 'conditions of deindividuation' allow for the facilitation of evil. Subsequently it becomes acceptable to enforce measures which degrade prisoners of their self–respect, including being stripped, deloused and ordered to carry a chain around their ankle, whilst the mandatory wearing of a smock and a cap made from a stocking demoralized them as it impacted upon their masculinity. Additionally, not only were prisoners assigned a number by which they were referred to, denying them of their identity, but each area of their daily ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Different Organizations engage in monitoring of employee's to track performance and to avoid legal liability, protect business secrets and to address other concerns such as security.
