data privacy is a best course to know how human beings to in social medias and what are the threat and this is future shining one of the courses

Much of the material is from 2015, so it's difficult to know whether it's outdated. In addition, some of the questions and answers in the course quizzes are very poorly worded, making it difficult to interpret and answer correctly. Finally, one of the reading assignments requires you to purchase a subscription to The Atlantic to access the article behind the firewall, which is ironic for a course about data privacy that spends a lot of time discussing how consumers are forced to provide their personal information to access online content or use applications and social media. No one should ever have to pay additional money to access course materials, and we definitely shouldn't be put in a position where we have no choice but to create yet another online account.

Than you!

I hope I'll be able to use this

course both in my professional and personal life to tackle problems

surrounding data collection.

Prof. Hartzog has designed an amazing course on Data Privacy and Privacy Law using excellent lectures, interviews and reading materials. This course would allow any individual to understand the nitty-grittys of data privacy as understood in the globe, US and the EU-GDPR. This course tells you more about how the existing protections of privacy are inadequate, the importance of "obscurity" and "trust", as well as perspectives that you should always bear in mind while dissecting privacy issues. Prof. Hartzog has put tremendous amounts of efforts in creating this course and I hope that he continues to create similarly interesting courses in future.

Perfect balance of video, interview and reading articles . This course made complex things into simple training. Good job Coursera

Very practical course

Excellent content!

This well-made short course is a must-take for everyone, as the implications of data privacy issues permeate modern life entirely. I highly appreciate the comprehensive overview that the material provides, as most, if not all, of the content are something that I would have asked data privacy experts/lawyers if I did not encounter this course. Particularly as an aspiring biomedical and clinical researcher, this course gave me a baseline working understanding of the framework and trends on this topic. The interviews shown are also highly insightful and astonishingly complements the lectures by Professor Hartzog.

The course was really great. The instructor had great knowledge about the subject and taught me in a very simple and understandable manner. I have learnt a lot about privacy data problems that happen in this current generation and in upcoming future around the world. I'm so grateful for this opportunity. Thank You

Great organization! The content was absolutely educating and pushed me to carry out more research on all I learnt. Every second was absolutely worth it.

I like the sharing of expert experience in the course. The professor invited experts to talk about special topics on data privacy and security.

Interesting and amazing to learn and be exposed to certain areas of data privacy in the context of social media and modern technologies.

Although the course is rather basic in nature the presentation was interesting and the Professor did a terrific job of presenting in a clear, concise, and personable manner. The course moved along quickly. The videos were informative. The quizzes were easy but afforded a good opportunity to review the material that was encountered. If you are looking for a good general course on the topic of data security this would be an outstanding introduction.

If you are new to Data Privacy, this course is the stepping-stone for you!

The best thing about the course is the interactive videos with the industry experts.

Also the way in which Professor Woodrow Hartzog has designed it is very unique and the language is so simple to understand the concept.

I will be definitely visting back to watch the videos again!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. I have gained different perspectives on addressing data privacy. The immense knowledge I received in such a simplified way, I truly appreciate that. Also, the interactive videos were well appreciated. As you said, I will listen again and recommend. Thank you

I enjoyed this course and its format. Quite comprehensive and very intresting. It definitely peaked my interest (again) to learn more about the subject. Loved the video content and the interviews. Will certainly look for any other courses/certficates this professor offers!

The instructor is engaging and quite frankly phenomenal! The course is well designed and is full of interesting topics and knowledgeable guests. I would recommend to anyone who has an interest in tech law / data privacy

The concepts addressed in this course have helped me in my new work. This has been very helpful to understand the fundamentals of data privacy and address what laws govern the transport of data, and keeping data secure.

Excelente contenidos para conocer los principios de la privacidad, los riesgos y la legislación global sobre el tema.

Terminé el curso con una visión general bastante clara sobre la privacidad y la protección de datos

The best course I've ever taken. Northeastern University, being my dream university, gave me one more opportunity to explore the learning environment. Professor Woodrow made me clear about what really privacy is.

Thank you for this course. I get know experience and knowledge in using different kinds of online tools which are useful and effective. I'll use some of them during my lessons. And lots of thanks.
