    The average man, though he longs for freedom, feels the need to be safe. People naturally wish to have the freedom to act on things, believe in things or say things, but, they want themselves and their families to be safe while doing so.

Elements from an extensive research performed on Simon Fraser University in 2007, has shown that approximately 30% of the students admitted have departed the university, without even completing a credential (Morris, 2007). This astounding figure depicts a phenomenon which must be addressed in order to establish the reasons for the ever rising rate.

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of The Nothing To Hide Argument By Daniel J. Solove

    541 Words  | 3 Pages

    The “Nothing-to-Hide Argument” Analyzed: In this rhetorical analysis, I will be taking a look at Daniel J. Solove’s essay “The Nothing-to-Hide Argument,” which is about privacy in the context of personal information and government data collection (Solove 734). Solove’s main argument in his essay is that the general public has a narrow perception of what privacy really is. The purpose behind his main argument is to expose the problems with the nothing-to-hide argument while presenting a way to challenge it for his target audience, government officials. Solove’s argument to his target audience is effective through his exemplary use of substance, organization, and style in his essay.

    The problem emerged as to when someone’s privacy had been invaded, what is its content or its area. Whether that area can be defined in a concrete terms and what is falling outside that area. John Stuart Mill in his most famous work in his essay On Liberty, published in 1859 discussed the principle that has come to be known as the principle of liberty (harm principle) That principle is that the sole end for which mankind are warranted, individually or collectively, in interfering with the liberty of action of any of their number is self-protection. Adherence to this principle makes possible a form of social life which maximizes liberty; conversely if individuals or the collective(the government), continually interfere with others, a liberal form of social life is impossible.
