“…PC refers to privacy concern and outcomes include the behavior of information disclosure, which helps explore how the mechanism of hot topic interactivity and group buying experience influence privacy concerns and the behavior of information disclosure. In this model, privacy concerns (PCs) play a role as both a dependent variable (for antecedents) and an independent variable (explaining behavior) [22].…”

Social e-commerce has steadily emerged as a current trend for an enormous amount of Internet users. Despite the popularity and prevalence of social e-commerce, many users hesitate to disclose their information due to privacy concerns. This resistance from users impedes the development of social e-commerce enterprises. In order to help enterprises collect more user information and establish better development strategies, this research builds on the Privacy Antecedent-Privacy Concern-Outcomes (APCO) model and the theory of privacy calculus. This research investigates how the privacy antecedents of hot topic interactivity and group buying experience influence users’ privacy concerns and perceived benefits as well as how to further influence users’ information disclosure behavior. The results from 406 questionnaire responses indicate that hot topic interactivity and group buying experience have significant negative impacts on privacy concerns and significant positive impacts on perceived benefits. Privacy concerns negatively influence the behavior of information disclosure while perceived benefits positively influence the behavior of information disclosure. Based on these results, social e-commerce enterprises should promote users’ behaviors of hot topic interactivity and group buying to stimulate users’ information disclosure behavior.

“…In the online context, the situation looks equally puzzling. More recent studies also recognise state privacy policies and regulations as an important domain for online privacy research (Ginosar & Ariel, 2017), in particular having in mind that internet users have limited knowledge and resources to assess data security and they rely on laws to protect them (Acquisti et al, 2015;Dommeyer & Gross, 2003). Opposed to this view, advocates of the self-regulation principle suggest that companies and e-business have strong incentives to introduce privacy protection rules to keep their online clients satisfied (Ginosar & Ariel, 2017).…”

This study examines the impact of regulation as an antecedent of online privacy concern. Previous research found that perceived effectiveness and enforcement of regulatory policies reduce online privacy concern; however, it does not explain what factors influence this relationship. Based on the survey data, the empirical analysis is conducted on a large sample of internet users in Croatia. Our methodology consists of two parts: first, we use confirmatory factor analysis to validate the latent constructs used in the main model; and then we proceed with model estimation using OLS and ordered probit techniques. This study fills the gap in the existing body of knowledge by analysing different perceptions of the existing legislation and government effort to protect online privacy in the context of sociodemographic characteristics of respondents, computer anxiety, individual desire to maintain control of personal information online, as well as intensity and diversity of online activities. Our results indicate that perceived effectiveness of government regulation reduces online privacy concern whereas computer anxiety has a major positive impact on online privacy concern. These findings might be useful for national policy-makers and for business strategies, especially in the context of the GDPR regulation introduced in 2018.

“…These three components are used as the basis and the model and developed on three equal dimensions, namely what someone knows (Knowledge), how they feel about the topic (Attitude), and what they do (Behavior) [13]. Privacy is often associated with the ability of an individual to control the conditions under which personal information is obtained and used [14]. When sharing information, individuals must consider losses and the advantages of spreading information [15].…”

“…The focus area of Disclosing Personal Information is something that describes several factors that are reasons why users disclose their personal information. [14]. Internet users have different behaviors in response to concerns about to which extent they are willing to share their personal information [14].…”

In the current information technology era, social media users increase every year. Recorded in 2017, among 143.26 million internet users, 87.13% or about 124.82 million used social media as part of lifestyle. There are some crimes such as robberies and murder happen caused by posting pictures or video regarding the privacy of Instagram users. In this research, there are some actions that users can do to avoid the crimes. This research aims to measure the privacy awareness of Instagram users in Indonesia by doing measurement using three dimensions of awareness such as Attitude, Knowledge, Behavior with four focus areas of privacy, namely Perceived Surveillance, Perceived Intrusion, Secondary Use of Information, Disclosing Personal Information. This research used the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method to measure the privacy awareness of Instagram users in Indonesia. Privacy awareness level in all dimensions is good. However, the attitude dimension with focus areas on perceived surveillance and perceived intrusion is still in the criterion of average awareness. It means that those focus areas potentially need treatment to improve such as being more careful while posting some content on Instagram because unauthorized people can get access more easily to the user's personal information and the users' activities.
