1.) What are the significant differences between personal information flow with IT and personal
out information flow without IT?
The difference between personal information flow with IT and personal information flow
without IT, is that the personal information dissemination with IT around or being intact is there
are great chances that it will distribute widely and freely in just a matter of seconds without the
knowledge of the authorized person and it can have a multiple copies that can be stored
somewhere else in the cyber space that for most of the people who don’t have IT specialty can’t
figure out and track where are those copies are hidden.
Hence, the personal information dissemination without IT around or being intact is that there is
a hard time to finalize, to collect and to disseminate and to transfer to other people because
there are only limited information that people can use and research about for a specific person
and it would took a great time to have a full information to have and greater money to spend
for it.

happen to you from being watched”. They can be countered in everyday lives as moving and
each day has passed by to our lives, simply because every person in this land came from
different walks of life and who knows, who will commit such kind of crime or doing to satisfy
their needs or wants in life.
