“…No significant relationship was found with interpersonal privacy management. Building further on DeGroot and Vik (2017), I presented the respondents with many different types of privacy turbulences. In addition to whether or not the respondents encountered one of these turbulent events, future research might also focus on the severity and recency of the event declared by the respondent to further examine the relationship between turbulence and privacy management.…”

“…Because of the open and fluid social environment of social media, including context collapses (Vitak, 2012) and invisible audiences (Litt, 2012), the occurrence of a breakdown or turbulence seems likely. DeGroot and Vik (2017) previously found that the lack of explicit privacy rules was likely to cause privacy turbulence. However, previous research also found behaviors of correcting, updating, and fine-tuning privacy rules after experiencing privacy disturbances (Child and Starcher, 2017; Child et al, 2011).…”

Contextualizing how teens manage personal and interpersonal privacy on social media

Many researchers have been studying teens’ privacy management on social media, and how they individually control information. Employing the theoretical framework of communication privacy management (CPM) theory, I argue that individual information control in itself is desirable but insufficient, giving only a limited understanding of teens’ privacy practices. Instead, I argue that research should focus on both personal and interpersonal privacy management to ultimately understand teens’ privacy practices. Using a survey study ( n = 2000), I investigated the predictors of teens’ personal and interpersonal privacy management on social media and compared different types of boundary coordination. The results demonstrate that feelings of fatalism regarding individual control in a networked social environment, which I call networked defeatism, are positively related with interpersonal privacy management. Also, interpersonal privacy management is less important when coordinating boundaries with peers than it is when coordinating sexual materials, and dealing with personal information shared by parents.

“…The public response was considerable, with many concerns raised about data privacy and what companies know about individuals and the types of information they share online. This type of large-scale privacy violation has an impact on the trust people have in the security of their digital data, and some people reportedly deleted their social media accounts after this occurred [28]. Of note, a large proportion (74%) of patients surveyed in this study had expressed concern that companies might share information with third parties without consent, a full 6-months before the Cambridge Analytica activities were reported in the media.…”

Background Patients generate large amounts of digital data through devices, social media applications, and other online activities. Little is known about patients’ perception of the data they generate online and its relatedness to health, their willingness to share data for research, and their preferences regarding data use. Methods Patients at an academic urban emergency department were asked if they would donate any of 19 different types of data to health researchers and were asked about their views on data types’ health relatedness. Factor analysis was used to identify the structure in patients’ perceptions of willingness to share different digital data, and their health relatedness. Results Of 595 patients approached 206 agreed to participate, of whom 104 agreed to share at least one types of digital data immediately, and 78% agreed to donate at least one data type after death. EMR, wearable, and Google search histories (80%) had the highest percentage of reported health relatedness. 72% participants wanted to know the results of any analysis of their shared data, and half wanted their healthcare provider to know. Conclusion Patients in this study were willing to share a considerable amount of personal digital data with health researchers. They also recognize that digital data from many sources reveal information about their health. This study opens up a discussion around reconsidering US privacy protections for health information to reflect current opinions and to include their relatedness to health.

“…As a result, more often than not, users decide to give the permissions they are asked for [9] and, in doing so, they are transformed into willing cogs in the geosurveillance machine [10]. The incentives to opt-out, to boycott, to remove ourselves from this mechanism are very few and the frequent examples of data-leaks and shadowy practices of giants such as Uber and Facebook [11,12] strengthen the myth that in the world of big data everything is already in a database somewhere. At the same time as users produce (or rather just provide) data, they also consume part of the stream of geospatial information to fuel and inform their quotidian activities through location-based services (LBS)-which provide "geographically-oriented data and information services to users across mobile telecommunication networks" [13].…”

Care, Indifference and Anxiety—Attitudes toward Location Data in Everyday Life

Modern mobile devices are replete with advanced sensors that expand the array of possible methods of locating users. This can be used as a tool to gather and use spatial information, but it also brings with it the specter of “geosurveillance” in which the “location” becomes a product in itself. In the realm of software developers, space/place has been reduced and discretized to a set of coordinates, devoid of human experiences and meanings. To function in such digitally augmented realities, people need to adopt specific attitudes, often marked with anxiety. We explored attitudes toward location data collection practices using qualitative questionnaire surveys (n = 280) from Poznan and Edinburgh. The prevailing attitude that we identified is neutral with a strong undertone of resignation—surrendering personal location is viewed as a form of digital currency. A smaller number of people had stronger, emotional views, either very positive or very negative, based on uncritical technological enthusiasm or fear of privacy violation. Such a wide spectrum of attitudes is not only produced by interaction with technology but can also be a result of different values associated with space and place itself. Those attitudes can bring additional bias into spatial datasets that is not related to demographics.
