11．The New York Times has reported on a problem that many of us have but are not aware of-Internet addiction．
According to reporter Tara Parker-pope，millions of us are addicted to being online．She says this is a growing writes about various reports highlighting（强调） how technology is changing people． In one，she quotes cyber-psychologist．Dr Elias Aboujaode who says，"More and more，life is like the chat room．"He said we are living in"virtual （虚拟的） lifestyles"，which is affecting our real-life relationships．
There are various opinions on the subject，especially among those who use the Internet．Some say that the Internet can be addicting．Some have different views．Nicki Bowling，a clinical psychologist from Melbourne University in Australia，concluded in a recent study that ten per cent of young people had what she called"Internet dependence"．
Tara Parker-Pope questioned experts in this field on what the signs are of being overly； absorbed in technology．
She came up with seven signs of"tech overload"．The first is whether you check your e-mail before doing other things．Another telltale sign is whether you always anticipate and look forward to your next online visit-a sure sign of dependence and addiction．The third point is whether you say，"just a few more minutes"when someone wants you．Parker-Pope found your communication with others also says a lot about how important the Internet is against family and friends； do you lie about how much time you spend online or choose to surf the Net instead of going out with others？Other giveaways include the"online lift"that stops you being unhappy，and when others complain about you always being online．

12．Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the Website you've visited，or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phonebills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits．
In fact，it's likely some of these things have already happened to you．Who would watch you without your permisson？It might be a spouse，a girlfriend，a marketing company，a boss，a cop or a criminal．Whoever it is，？they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen-the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked．
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy，and that it's important to reveal yourself to friends，family and lovers in stages，at appropriate times．But few boundaries remain．The digital bread crumbs （碎屑） you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are，where you are and what you like．In some cases，a simple Google search can reveal what you think．Like it or not，increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret．
The key question is：Does that matter？
For many Americans，the answer apparently is"No．
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy，most say they are concerned about losing it．A survery found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy，with 60percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is"slipping away，and that bothers me．"
But people say one thing and do another．Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy．Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths（收费站） to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements．And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards．Privacy economist A lessandro Acauisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon （优惠卷）．
But privacy does matter-at least sometimes．It's like health：When you have it，you don't notice it．Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it．
