Deep. Love it.
There is a Jewish law of lushin hora (no idea how to spell it.) You are forbidden to talk about anyone. Period. No gossip. Not even good things. Try that for a week. You will discover just how much of your conversation is about other people.
BTW, did you hear about Howard Schmidt?

Real World Culture 1.0: Yikes, that disclosure event cost us $10M, how do we make sure we protect our customer’s information?
Real World Culture 2.0: Yikes, *that* disclosure event cost us $25M, how do we make sure we protect our customer’s information that was supposed to be secured?

@John: Privacy is not secrecy but rather appropriate flow of information.

Hi, Saqib – yes, agree: privacy is about the *appropriate* flow of information. Essentially, privacy is enforcing “need to know.”
