New Forum Suggestion

I know you must get these sorts of suggestions a lot, but I would ask you to seriously consider this one:

Privacy

There is no forum category that exists here at TSG to really inform and discuss these sorts of topics which are very important that everyone with a computer understand. The topic doesn't quite fit into the General Security forum as it is different in nature from security although related to it.

Thanks for listening.

Hi Cookiegal,

General Security is where I put my latest message thread, however, privacy is quite a different concern than security which is why I raise the issue.

I'm not sure I agree with this, Security is how you protect your privacy, seems to be a reasonable fit to me.

I'm guessing if we started creating forums at that granularity, we'd quickly mushroom to about five or ten times the number of forums.

 

Yeah it is important to keep the number of forums under control as the more forums you have, the more time consuming reading them is and that is a major concern to regular forum members. I agree with JohnWill and Karen as usual.

 

How about a 'sticky' within General Security to explain that this is the forum for privacy issues with some generic advice and suggested procedures/progs?

Hopefully, when we get the "TSG Library of Knowledge" expanded, it would reside there.

 

Hi John,

How is that library coming anyway?
