Answer to Question 1

The tort of invasion of privacy encompasses four causes of action: 1) unreasonable intrusion upon the seclusion of another; 2) misappropriation of a person's name or likeness; 3) public disclosure of private facts; or 4) publicity that unreasonably places the other in a false light before the public.

Answer to Question 2

Data mining is series of techniques used to extract intelligence from vast stores of digital information. Data mining, especially of health information, created privacy questions. Some legislation has been adopted to address privacy concerns with data mining but there are also constitutional issues with data mining legislation.
