While surfing the Internet browsers keep tracks of our Internet activity in order to provide a more pleasant computer and surfing experience. But these history tracks can compromise our privacy and provide an easy way for others to see what web sites you visited, what you have been searching, downloading, viewing, etc.
Windows and different applications we use keep tracks about your computer activity in order to provide a more pleasant computer experience. But those history tracks can also compromise our privacy and show what you have been doing, searching, downloading, running, saving, what documents and files you have just opened etc.
So while there are lots of things that we have gained from the computer revolution there is a price we have to pay. And the price is our computer privacy. Of course there is no simple solution for this problem. But inactivity is also impossible. There are some simple steps everyone could do. There are different tools available to help us maintain our privacy - anonymous surfing tools, encryption software, clear history software. When your PC is equipped with privacy software, it has the greatest chance of surviving privacy or security attacks.

THE PRIVACY PROTECTION
Privacy protection
Free market versus consumer protection approaches
Approaches to privacy can, broadly, be divided into two categories: free market, and consumer protection In a free market approach, commercial entities are largely allowed to do what they wish, with the expectation that consumers will choose to do business with corporations that respect their privacy to a desired degree. If some companies are not sufficiently respectful of privacy, they will lose market share. Such an approach may be limited by lack of competition in a market, by enterprises not offering privacy options favorable to the user, or by lack of information about actual privacy practices. Claims of privacy protection made by companies may be difficult for consumers to verify, except when they have already been violated.

PRIVACY LAW
Privacy law
Privacy law is the area of law concerning the protecting and preserving of privacy rights of individuals. While there is no universally accepted privacy law among all countries, some organizations promote certain concepts be enforced by individual countries. For example, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, article 12, states:
- No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honor and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.
