It is said that privacy is the right to be left alone. Given recent technological developments that result in increasingly pervasive surveillance of individuals, frightening capabilities to aggregate and compile sensitive information about any person,cyber guy gathering more data and continuing erosion of individual liberty in the name of National Security, one wonders if the word "anonymity" will soon be purged from the dictionary as an archaic and unused term. Psychologists tell us that the need for solitude is basic to mental health and well being. These constant unwarranted intrusions are driving us crazy.
