Protection for Sportsmen’s Personal Information and the Right of Privacy

The right of privacy under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights was incorporated into English law by the Human Rights Act 1998, but English law as yet recognises no tort of invasion of privacy as such. Admittedly, a number of specific torts protect particular aspects of privacy, but this protection may be regarded as haphazard, incidental, and incomplete. Recent decisions, however, have seen substantial developments in the protection given to particular privacy interests, above all by adapting the law of breach of confidence to provide a remedy against the unauthorised disclosure of personal information. These issues are discussed in this chapter.

This chapter discusses privacy from the perspective of the consumer of e-services. It proposes a technique for risk management assessment designed to help consumers evaluate a situation to identify and understand potential privacy concerns. The technique centers around a series of questions based on common principles of privacy protection. The chapter discusses how a consumer can understand exposure risks and how information can be controlled and monitored to mitigate the risks. It also proposes a method for assessing the consumer’s value of personal information, and a mechanism for automated negotiation is presented to facilitate fair, private information exchange. The authors believe that these or similar techniques are essential to give consumers of e-services meaningful control over the personal information they release. This forward-looking chapter provides a foundation for developing methods to empower users with control over their private information.

AbstractThis study deals with changing views and attitudes of individuals towards creator and religion. Apart from this, we analyzed the reasons behind the change of opinions.In this paper, we also investigated in a psychosocial approach what lies in the background of that through which atheists and deists adopted this understanding. After we briefly explained the terms "atheism" and "deism" we inquired about the family relations of respondents beginning from their childhood and puberty ages. We asked the respondents whether they are informed by families and the frequency of their practising the duties of past religious affiliates which is followed by sceptical manner about the religion adhered questioning if they experienced any traumatic event and examined the circumstances that motivated them to be atheists or deists. We also sought to determine similarities and differences between atheists and deists in terms of the way of thinking.This research has been prepared within the frame of the interviews carried out with 25 volunteers, 15 of whom were atheists and 10 deists. Some of the interviews were recorded their consent having been obtained. As per the right of privacy and the request of the subjects, their universities, identity and personal information have been kept confidential.

Düşünce değişikliğinin arka planında hangi kodların bulunduğu ayrıca irdelenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu çalışmada ateist ve deistlerin, arka planda ateizmi ve deizmi benimsemesine yol açan sebeplerin neler olduğu psiko-sosyal bir bakış açısıyla incelenecektir. Ateizm ve deizmin ne olduğu kısaca izah edildikten sonra deneklerin çocukluk ve ergenlik döneminden başlanarak aile ilişkileri ele alınmıştır. Dinî konularda ailesi tarafından bilgilendirilme durumu, toplumla ilişkileri, daha önce mensup olduğu dinin ibadetlerini yerine getirip getirmeme sıklığı sorulmuştur. Sonrasında mensup olunan dine dair taşınan şüpheler, hayatlarını etkileyen travmatik bir olay yaşayıp yaşamadıkları, onları ateist veya deist olmaya iten faktörler irdelenmiştir. Ateist ve deistlerin birbirinden ayrıldığı ve benzer düşündüğü konular ortaya çıkartılmaya çalışılmıştır.Araştırma, 15’i ateist, 10’u deist, toplam 25 gönüllü öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilen mülakatlar çerçevesinde ortaya çıkmıştır. Mülakatlarda, isteğe bağlı olarak ses kaydı alınmıştır.

Roe V Wade

In Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court held that “[the] right of privacy … founded in the Fourteenth Amendment's concept of personal liberty … is broad enough to encompass a woman's decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy.” The Court acknowledged that “[t]he Constitution does not explicitly mention any right of privacy.” Nevertheless, the Court held that a “right of personal privacy, or a guarantee of certain areas or zones of privacy, does exist under the Constitution.” However, “only personal rights that can be deemed ‘fundamental’ or ‘implicit in the concept of ordered liberty,’ … are included in this guarantee of personal privacy.”
