College English Instructor
I’m currently doing some research on the topic of privacy as a theme for my argument course. I would love to see this documentary but cannot find a copy anywhere. Maybe I’m not looking in the right places. Any suggestions?
Found the Documentaries
I found the documentaries on Creative Commons. I would be interested, however, if anyone has any other recommendations about documentaries on the topic of privacy or any general advice for an instructor who is just beginning to research this topic for a course theme. So far the only other documentary on the topic of privacy that I have found is one by CNBC called “Big Brother, Big Business.” I haven’t watched it yet though, so I don’t know if it’s any good.
Thanks for this post!
