“…These investigations have often uncovered generalized concerns about the tracking and recording that is inherent in Ubicomp systems (e.g., [2], [11], [25]). At the same time, however, other investigations have indicated that people are not concerned with many new Ubicomp technologies (e.g., [5], [20]).…”

This paper presents an exploration and analysis of attitudes towards everyday tracking and recording technologies (e.g., credit cards, store loyalty cards, store video cameras). Interview participants reported being highly concerned with information privacy. At the same time, however, they also reported being significantly less concerned regarding the use of everyday technologies that have the capabilities to collect, process, and disseminate personal information. We present results from this study that both identify and begin to explain this discrepancy.

“…Iachello [11] identified existing privacy frameworks and methods in the field of HCI, grouped as guidelines [8,9,17], process frameworks [7,12,31] and model frameworks [13,18,30]. STRAP [12] and PriFs [31] focus specifically in requirements elicitation combined with goal oriented analysis methods [5,16].…”

Developing ubiquitous computing systems in compliance with the data protection regulation is a difficult task. The European General Data Protection Regulation requests system developers to apply a privacy-by-design methodology and perform privacy impact assessments throughout the whole development life-cycle. Our proposal is a software assisted process framework that facilitates the analysis of privacy implications in ubiquitous computing systems. This software has been evaluated with students and ubicomp experts.

“…Our market model does not have a level of privacy protection that arms individuals against intentional, targeted attacks by organizations or criminals. We adopt the principle of proportionality that aims to balance economic utility with privacy (Iachello and Abowd, 2005). For instance, we embrace the fact that with access to voluminous data sets, anonymous data can theoretically be re-identified.…”

“…Rather, trade-offs between functionality, usability, and processed PI have to be made on a case-bycase basis to ensure good-enough-privacy. The principle of proportionality has been applied successfully to make decisions of this kind (Iachello and Abowd, 2005).…”

A vision for global privacy bridges: Technical and legal measures for international data markets

From the early days of the information economy, personal data has been its most valuable asset. Despite data protection laws and an acknowledged right to privacy, trading personal information has become a business equated with "trading oil". Most of this business is done without the knowledge and active informed consent of the people. But as data breaches and abuses are made public through the media, consumers react. They become irritated about companies' data handling practices, lose trust, exercise political pressure and start to protect their privacy with the help of technical tools. As a result, companies' Internet business models that are based on personal data are unsettled. An open conflict is arising between business demands for data and a desire for privacy. As of 2015 no true answer is in sight of how to resolve this conflict. Technologists, economists and regulators are struggling to develop technical solutions and policies that meet businesses' demand for more data while still maintaining privacy. Yet, most of the proposed solutions fail to account for market complexity and provide no pathway to technological and legal implementation. They lack a bigger vision for data use and privacy. To break this vicious cycle, we propose and test such a vision of a personal information market with privacy. We accumulate technical and legal measures that have been proposed by technical and legal scholars over the past two decades. And out of this existing knowledge, we compose something new: a four-space market model for personal data.
