Enough....

In Accordance with the  fourth amendment of the United States constitution, In Katz Vs United states, 389 U.S. 347 is a united states case discussed the nature of the “right to privacy” and the legal definition of “Search”.  It is a person has a constitutionally protected reasonable expectation of privacy. Electronic as well as Physical Intrusion into a place that is in this sense private may constitute a violation of the Fourth Amendment. Invasion of a constitutionally protected area by Federal authorities is presumptively unreasonable in the absence of warrant.

The existence of privacy is  determined as,"If the individual has exhibited an actual (subjective) expectation of privacy" Eg. Private portions of a public domain, Expectation of privacy in his car.

"Society is prepared to recognize that this expectation is (objectively) reasonable", then there is a right of privacy in the given circumstances..

On a contradictory note, Not how far this privacy is established or where the line is drawn is always unknown? So to explore the possibilities of Hackers and then downgrade them by safe guarding one self against an intrusion. In a wired world, How to protect your gmail account where there is a minimal safety?

Last activity session of your gmail will show where your gmail account is used.. Click on Details to get down further details.

If you have multiple logins say iphone,  office computer, or some other location then it will be

                 “Last account activity : 23 minutes ago on this ip” It will show. 

Once we click on the Details(locate in  Last account activity line), A popup will open and you can see from which location this account has been used and what ip address is accessing your account. If it is hacked, then it might be some unknown ip . if not it will be your service provider ip address. 

If you still suspect that a hacker is located in your location itself, you can nail down further by.. copying the ip address listed in the popup.. and go to http://whois.domaintools.com/  to identify whose ip address is that.

Assume that if your account is hacked,to play safe, It is advisable that change your google password and security questions. In the popup there will be an option to sign out from all other sessions..(say if you sign in at a public place to your google and you forgot to sign out..)

To change your password and identity secret question, Please select a security question that will nowhere be a clue to a password. A password/security questions should not be any known name across your circle in society(It should not be ur date of birth, employee id, Mothers name..)
