Information privacy concerns

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Information privacy concerns refer to the worries, apprehensions, or considerations individuals may have regarding the protection and control of their personal information. It encompasses the right of individuals to manage and safeguard details about themselves in various contexts, particularly in the digital age where information is frequently collected, stored, and processed through advanced technologies. The concerns revolve around the potential misuse or unauthorized access to personal data, including issues such as the collection of data without individuals' awareness, improper access, unauthorized secondary use, and errors in handling information. The concept of information privacy spans multiple dimensions[1], including privacy of a person, personal behavior privacy, personal communication privacy, and personal data privacy. As technology advances, individuals grapple with challenges related to the fast-paced collection, aggregation, and analysis of data, necessitating a critical examination of information privacy across various levels of analysis and contexts. Researchers and practitioners alike explore ways to address these concerns, recognizing the evolving landscape of information systems and the need for global awareness and understanding of information privacy issues.[2] [1]

Definitions of information privacy concerns

Several writers have taken on the task of defining information privacy concerns throughout history. Warren and Brandeis (1890)[3] made one of the first attempts to define privacy, though not in the context of the internet. "The right of a person to be alone by isolation from the attention of others" is how they defined privacy. Fried (1968)[4] built upon this definition by adding the protection of private information and the right to maintain confidentiality.
