With technology constantly growing, privacy seems to be a thing of the past. 
   The phone company, Verizon, recently admitted that they track what sites and apps their customers use.  They now join the ranks of other companies like Apple, AT&T and Sprint, who have also admitted to tracking customers.
   “I feel used,” junior Alejandra Crites said.  “They are using me to make a profit.”
   With more and more companies invading privacy, some people are wondering if there’s really any company left that respects a customer’s privacy.
   “I don’t think there are any reputable companies left,” technology teacher Mr. David Vuick said. “But I really don’t know for sure.”
   If there are no reputable companies left, the question is whether or not this problem will ever be solved.
   “I think the government will step in,” junior Frank Manza said.  “I think there will be more restrictions that will stop issues like this.”
   But some people feel that if they knew more about a company’s policies, then this wouldn’t be a problem. 
   “We should be a little more educated on how much the company knows about you,” Crites said. “Then people wouldn’t get so mad.”
   Besides the User-Agreement Policy, which nobody reads, companies typically stay quiet about tracking their users.  Some people are concerned if there is any safe haven from being tracked.
   “We are tracked every time we click the mouse,” Vuick said. “If you don’t want to be tracked, don’t use the internet.”
   Whether or not one takes Mr. Vuick’s advice to heart, he does seem to be on to something.  In today’s world of modern technology, privacy will always be threatened.
