==Online culture== 21st century culture affords a higher level of public transparency than ever before, and actually requires it in many cases. Modern technology and associated culture shifts have changed how government works (see [[WikiLeaks]]), what information people can find out about each other, and the ability of politicians to stay in office if they are involved in [[sex scandals]]. Due to the [[digital revolution]], people no longer have a high level of control over what is public information, leading to a tension between the values of transparency and [[privacy]].<ref>{{cite book|title=The Digital person: technology and privacy in the information age|page=[https://archive.org/details/isbn_9780814798461/page/140 140] |url=https://archive.org/details/isbn_9780814798461|url-access=registration|isbn=978-0814798461 |first=Daniel J. |last=Solove|year= 2004|publisher=NYU Press }}</ref>
