Marc Langheinrich, "Mobile Privacy" slides
Mobile applications that go beyond simple GPS-enabled maps often involve
significant privacy issues. In my talk, I will first try to frame the
problem associated with mobile applications and personal privacy, i.e.,
why should we care about privacy issues when designing mobile
applications? I will then briefly summarize the current state-of-the-art
in location privacy, i.e., computational countermeasures, consumer
attitudes, and legal realities. Last but not least, I will also try to
offer a somewhat larger view of privacy in general: what is it, and why
should we want it?
