“…In the current centralised Internet infrastructure, individuals have little or no control over the storage and usage of their data [ 5 ]. Furthermore, with this centralised structure, personal data are vulnerable to data security and privacy issues (e.g., data breaches by Facebook) and unlawful usage of the data [ 6 ]. Besides, individuals will not be able to use their data as a valuable asset to create profit.…”

Internet services have collected our personal data since their inception. In the beginning, the personal data collection was uncoordinated and was limited to a few selected data types such as names, ages, birthdays, etc. Due to the widespread use of social media, more and more personal data has been collected by different online services. We increasingly see that Internet of Things (IoT) devices are also being adopted by consumers, making it possible for companies to capture personal data (including very sensitive data) with much less effort and autonomously at a very low cost. Current systems architectures aim to collect, store, and process our personal data in the cloud with very limited control when it comes to giving back to citizens. However, Personal Data Stores (PDS) have been proposed as an alternative architecture where personal data will be stored within households, giving us complete control (self-sovereignty) over our data. This paper surveys the current literature on Personal Data Stores (PDS) that enable individuals to collect, control, store, and manage their data. In particular, we provide a comprehensive review of related concepts and the expected benefits of PDS platforms. Further, we compare and analyse existing PDS platforms in terms of their capabilities and core components. Subsequently, we summarise the major challenges and issues facing PDS platforms’ development and widespread adoption.

“…These are just some of the most awful consequences of engaging in any of these behaviors. The study sample has been collected from social media pages of well-known e-commerce platforms, which frequently use heavily customized paid ads, also known as retargeting ads, whose negative effects on consumption and on the mental well-being of social media users have been reported in previous literature ( Lulandala, 2020 ). Thailand is among the most social media engaged population in the world having 51 million users on Facebook and 16 million users on Instagram, however, very little focus has been placed on investigating the characteristics of compulsive, impulsive and conspicuous consumption as effects of social media usage ( Gupta and Vohra, 2019 ).…”

The Dark Side of Social Media: Content Effects on the Relationship Between Materialism and Consumption Behaviors

This study contributes to the emerging literature on the negative effects over consumption that social media users may develop as a consequence of being engaged on social media platforms. The authors tested materialism’s direct and indirect impacts on compulsive, conspicuous, and impulsive buying, adding two novel mediators: attitudes toward social media content (SCM) and social media intensity (SMI). The study uses a convenience sample of 400 Thai social media users analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results confirmed the well-established positive relationships between materialism and each of the three-negative consumption behaviors also in the social media domain. A novel finding showed the important role played by SMI which was found to be a strong predictor of each of the three negative consumption behaviors and it was also found to significantly mediate the relationship between materialism and the three-negative consumption behaviors. An additional contribution of the study was found on the role of attitudes which, contrary to what is commonly believed, were often not significant in predicting any negative behavior.

Exploring Factors Influencing System Administrators' Security Vulnerability Remediation Decisions

This thesis explores factors influencing system administrators' security vulnerability remediation decisions. Little is known about how system administrators determine when and whether to address security vulnerabilities and how they prioritize their remediation decisions. Herein, we present a preliminary semi-structured interview study with seven system administrators and a large-scale survey study with 124 system administrators working in North America. The findings reveal that factors such as vulnerability severity, administrator's skills and experience, fix complexity, and potential impact on the system greatly influence system administrators' decisions.We also explore the idea of "vulnerability ownership," the system administrator responsible for introducing the vulnerability to the system. We found that the concept of ownership differs based on the type of vulnerability. Our results highlight the importance of system administrators collaborating with their colleagues and external vendors.First and foremost, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my supervisor, Professor Hala Assal, for her invaluable guidance, expertise, and unwavering support throughout my Master's journey.
