Complete 9 pages APA formatted article: Freedom of Speech, Privacy and Intellectual Property. On the one side, when too much information about the privacy policies of the information gatherer is provided, the problem is that the people it is intended for will not be willing to read it, and in most cases even if they read it, they will not be able to understand it especially where too many technical terms are used (Nissenbaum, 2011). On the other hand, if too little detail is provided, there may be some important details which will be left and these details could the ones that are important for individuals to make choices on if they want to give up their information or not. In this case, it then appears that more information is just as counterproductive as little information with regard to the privacy policies notice-and-consent. This then leads to what Nissenbaum calls the privacy paradox.

This issue of privacy paradox applies a lot on the internet due to a number of issues. One, most online firms that collect data from the internet users only implement the notice-and-consent in a technical way, only as a disclaimer in order to veil their interests against any legal issues (Wu & Yoo, 2007). Most of them do not try even in the little bit to make it easier for the users to really read and understand the terms and conditions use and the privacy policies that these firms use. In this case, they only provide a long sheet of information that is filled with technical terms and this makes it harder for the readers to read and understand.

The way the privacy paradox appears in most online sites is not with regard to too little information but with regard to too much information being used. Most sites only provide a link to their privacy policy page and at the same time also provide the users with a button to click as a way to agree to the terms and agreement.
