SPECIFIC THREATS PERCEIVED Sample Clauses

SPECIFIC THREATS PERCEIVED. Much of the concern about privacy one encounters in various investigations of its nature is framed around perceived risks of either having information disclosed to the wrong people or in damaging ways, or else around risks of losing control of personal information in some way so that its use is no longer available to you. Whilst, as noted above, a lot of the research about loss of control is quite general in nature, some research does drill a little more deeply into exactly what kinds of risks people think may confront them if they should lose control of their data in some way. The specific risks people may associate with having their personal information exposed to third parties are diverse. One such concern is with how exposure may result in damage to people’s identities in some way (Xxxxxxx et al, 2013; Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2007; Xxxxxxxxxxx, 2008; Xxxx et al, 2008), such as identity theft, where a malicious party impersonates a victim (Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2003). Other concerns may be seen to attach to the risk of exposing what might be termed ‘negative information’ or conveying a negative impression, with this in turn being used for various dubious ends such as shame and exposure, retribution, bullying, or even blackmail (Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, 2001; Xxxxx et al, 2012; Xxxx & Xxxxxx, 2013; Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2003; Xxxxx et al, 2012; Sleeper et al, 2013). Xxxxx and Dourish (2003) also suggest that people have concerns about surveillance from a variety of sources (including employers) and unwanted government inspection of their activity. Others such as Xxxxxxx et al (2009) point to concerns people have regarding the risk of financial loss as a result of conducting online transactions and note that a number of people adopt certain strategies such as not undertaking online purchases or online banking in public locations, to try and limit the risk of having their accounts hacked.
