Westin's ideas transformed the meaning of privacy, leading to a spate of privacy laws in the 1970s, as well as prefiguring the arguments over privacy that have come to dominate the internet era. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis all new edition of \u003ci\u003ePrivacy and Freedom\u003c\/i\u003e features an introduction by Daniel J.
