摘要：Information policy at all levels of government as well as the information practices of private businesses and institutions that affect the public are necessarily the concern of information professionals. For this issue, the ASIS&T Special Interest Group on Information Policy (SIG/IFP) and guest editor Brandi Loveday provide perspectives on current policy challenges, focusing on privacy. Grace Begany writes on mobile privacy; Norman Gervais, on U.S. government use of cookies; Shelly Warwick, on the privacy environment post-9/11; Christopher Kotfila, on self-destructing data in digital communication; and Shannon Oltmann, on the current legal findings regarding Fifth Amendment protections and the keys/passwords to encrypted data.
