Ubiquitous and networked sensors impose a huge challenge for privacy protection which has become an emerging problem of modern society. Protecting the privacy of visual data is particularly important due to the omnipresence of cameras, and various protection mechanisms for captured images and videos have been proposed. This paper introduces an objective evaluation framework in order to assess such protection methods. Visual privacy protection is typically realised by obfuscating sensitive image regions which often results in some loss of utility. Our evaluation framework assesses the achieved privacy protection and utility by comparing the performance of standard computer vision tasks, such as object recognition, detection and tracking on protected and unprotected visual data. The proposed framework extends the traditional frame-by-frame evaluation approach by introducing two new approaches based on aggregated and fused frames. We demonstrate our framework on eight differently protected video-sets and measure the trade-off between the improved privacy protection due to obfuscating captured image data and the degraded utility of the visual data. Results provided by our objective evaluation method are compared with an available state-of-the-art subjective study of these eight protection techniques.

The recent exposure of the NSA documents has raised a great deal of concerns with regards to the effective control of companies that cooperate with intelligence agencies. It also exposed a network of secret government spying partnerships used to go around existing domestic guarantees and to spy on one's own citizens through the back door. The dread that both legal and technological means designed with legitimate purposes such as counter-terrorism and crime prevention are also employed for total social control is now out there. In many aspects it looks like we are experiencing the end of privacy and opting for a 'surveillance society' instead. In the clutter of pressing issues, most of the recent scholarly attention has focused on the assessment and reform proposals of the existing, but as it turns out inadequate with respect to actual rights protection, domestic legal frameworks. This has left the obligations of the intruders under international human rights law unconsidered. Therefore, the present paper aims at evaluating the legality of such surveillance programs under the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights.
