Hello,

Several questions re your website. I note the web page states the following:

The purpose of this study is to find out people's opinions about privacy and
surveillance of the Internet in the workplace. It should take about 5 to 10
minutes to complete.

And what are you going to do once you have this opinion? I mean, once you
have the information - what will you do with it?

I note your senior decribes herself as being interested in young people's
hopes and dreams for the future and that she holds an interest in narrative,
developmental & social psychology and that you are a lecturer of the School
of Communication and Media - lecturing what pray tell?

I therefore am interested in why the URL is linked to a commercial site for
a commercial enterprise, seemingly unrelated to the UWS.

What research are you doing & why is it so important?

to repeat those mistakes!

Do we? Who have you compared 'us' with?  I assume you are trying to say you
wish us not to 'repeat those mistakes' in the privacy law/legislation.

In regards to the Amendment, have you looked at the OECD commentary and
data? What is your opinion of the already massive volume on the Australian
Privacy amendments that come into force on 20/21 December of this year?  It
is true there are issues with the amendments however it is troublesome that
'academics' like yourself make statements like you have - ie that we're on
the road to have the worst western-world laws in regards to privacy.

May I ask your qualifications and ask if you have been asked to provide this
data to the Commissioner and in what context or have you decided that you
will.off your own bat? If you have been asked - what made the Commissioner
want you to provide this data - particularly as the Commissioner seems (by
the fact this is an enterprise based questionairre) to be wanting
re-Training:Search.to do such? I assume you are doing it off your own bat as
you say you are going to approach the Commissioner so the question is really
why are going to approach him? What are you going to get from it?

Thanks...

From one of the folks...

(Sorry if it's a little all over the place - I wacked this together quickly
as I wanted it up asap and have so much to say but thought I'd wait and see
what response I get first.)
