The central idea of The Code Book is meaningful to me because I always assumed no one who wasn’t supposed to could read the information I share. It bothers me that people are out there creating and sending out viruses and Trojan horses. But it is important for me to know so that now I can try to protect myself better. From now on, I’ll be more careful about the programs and applications I use because when i get home and pay my bill over my internet banking, i have no idea where this information is going through. When i send a picture to my friend that lives across the street, that information can go to Germany and back before reaching my friend. Everything seems and feels so simple and intuitive, but it all happens in the dark and we have no control. Privacy doesn't exist in the internet for any of us in our daily routine and it is naive to think otherwise. A password doesn't protect my privacy, it gives me the illusion of privacy.
