cannot avoid some certain problems when we are working on a computer. Letters and phone conversations
are private. It is against the law to open someone’s mail without permission or to listen secretly to someone’s
telephone conversation. And now there are laws to protect the privacy of e-mail. It is also against the law to

attacks included some of largest and most successful companies on the Internet, such as Yahoo, Amazon, and
