摘要：

Various privacy issues involved in the Web and their solutions are discussed. The two major factors that contribute to the privacy problem on the Web are the inherently open, nondeterministic nature of the Web, and the complex, leakage-prone information flow of many Web-based transactions that involve the transfer of sensitive, personal information. Four major sources of privacy violation, including unauthorized information transfer, weak security, data magnets and indirect forms of information collection, are presented. Some technology-enabled and regulatory enabled solution to Web privacy problem are also discussed.
