Background: Teenagers in Indonesia have an open nature and satisfy their desire to exist by uploading photos or videos and writing posts on Instagram. The habit of uploading photos, videos, or writings containing their personal information can be dangerous and potentially cause user privacy problems. Several criminal cases caused by information misuse have occurred in Indonesia.Objective: This paper investigates information privacy concerns among Instagram users in Indonesia, more specifically amongst college students, the largest user group of Instagram in Indonesia.Methods: This study referred to the Internet Users' Information Privacy Concerns (IUIPC) method by collecting data through the distribution of online questionnaires and analyzed the data by using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM).Results: The research finding showed that even though students are mindful of the potential danger of information misuse in Instagram, it does not affect their intention to use Instagram. Other factors that influence Indonesian college students' trust are Instagram's reputation, the number of users who use Instagram, the ease of using Instagram, the skills and knowledge of Indonesian students about Instagram, and the privacy settings that Instagram has.Conclusion: The awareness and concern of Indonesian college students for information privacy will significantly influence the increased risk awareness of information privacy. However, the increase in risk awareness does not directly affect Indonesian college students' behavior to post their private information on Instagram.

Abstract:The role of trust has long been acknowledged among economists and political scientists. It is often argued that high levels of trust among people help promote democratization, economic activity, well-performing institutions and low levels of violence. Social media has been identified as a significant vehicle in fostering social connections however the depth and significance of these connections to the creation of trust has not been well developed. According to Robert Putnam trust derives from reciprocity that is learned only in cooperation with others. Putnam is skeptical of a positive relationship between trust and digitalized social media. According to Uslaner trust is a moral issue established by family relationships early in life and therefore use of social media has no impact on creating trust. This paper is a structured literature review. The aim is to investigate if trust can be created by connections on digitalized social media. Eight articles emphasized a positive relationship between social media and trust; two articles claimed no relationship between trust and social media. We did not find any studies claiming there is a negative relation between social media and trust.

“…Most of the studies they found indicated that social media has a positive effect on trust. Monforti and Marichal (2014) studied digital skills and generalised trust in different ethnic groups: Latinos, African-Americans and Anglo-Americans in the US. In this study, they found that digital skills were connected to generalised trust for African Americans but not for Latinos or AngloAmericans.…”

South Africa has witnessed a decline in youth voter turnout. Consequently, political parties are employing marketing strategies that aim to appeal to the young voter, such as social media. Notwithstanding the increasing studies on social media in political marketing, there is a dearth of such research in South Africa. Furthermore, no studies have explored the influence of political marketing using social media on voter trust, loyalty and voting intention of the youth in the South African political context. This research intends to contribute to the increasing body of research on the efficacy of political marketing using social media by political parties in South Africa to engage with the youth and improve their election turn out. The two main research objectives are to establish the influence of political marketing using social media and on voting intention, with voter trust and voter loyalty as mediators and to determine which mediator (voter trust or voter loyalty) has the strongest influence on the outcome variable (voting intention). Using a data set of 250 respondents, between the ages of 18 and 35 years, from Gauteng Province in South Africa, this study examines these relationships. The study outcome is that all the five hypotheses are supported. The results indicate that the relationship between political marketing using social media and voter trust, political marketing using social media and voter loyalty, voter trust and voter loyalty, voter trust and voting intention and voter loyalty and voting intention are all positive in a significant way. The research paper discusses both academic, political party and marketer's implications of the results and future research directions are suggested.
