Habeas Data: Privacy vs. the Rise of Surveillance Tech by Cyrus Farivar

Good presentation of current computer privacy issues from a US legal perspective. Covers third-party doctrine, the difference in kind (due to quantity, etc.) of digital surveillance, particularly mobile phones, and various other privacy concerns. More aimed at professionals and academics than end-users, but it's a solid presentation of current state of play as well as what legal questions will need to be decided over the next few years.
