I am getting ready to teach my seminar on Computers, Crime and Privacy
again, and wondering if there is something new that I should substitute for
_Building in Big Brother_. Are there any recent books that have a
reasonably accessible treatment of encryption, the controversy over
regulation, etc.? For that matter, are there any good recent books on
computer crime?

I may end up simply substituting in a lot of URL's, but I thought it was
probably worth including some old technology as well, if available.

You should get Whitfield Diffie and Susan Landau's "Privacy
on the Line : The Politics of Wiretapping and Encryption" MIT
Press.

If it isn't out yet, it should be out soon. It is excellent.
