It depends on how you define internet privacy. If you mean individual awareness and a person's concern for the security of their data on the Internet, I think that we're in a better place than 10 years ago, but there's still a long way to go. I think the actual privacy and protection of data runs contrary to the way Internet collaboration is heading, at the individual, group, company and governmental level. The Internet is such a good tool for information exchange, it seems weird to restrict the exchange of that information. But restrict we must, for when we fail to effectively do so, bad shit happens(tm). But don't worry, PCI DSS will solve everything. A vendor told me so it must be true ;)
