New technical and legal developments pose greater and greater privacy
dilemmas. Governments have in the recent years increasingly established
and
legalised surveillance schemes in form of data retention, communication
interception or CCTVs for the reason of fighting terrorism or serious
crimes. Surveillance Monitoring of individuals is also a threat in the
private sector: Private organisations are for instance increasingly
using
profiling and data mining techniques for targeted marketing, analysing
customer buying predictions or social sorting. Work place monitoring
practices allow surveillance of employees. Emerging pervasive computing
technologies, where individuals are usually unaware of a constant data
collection and processing in their surroundings, will even heighten the
problem that individuals are effectively losing control over their
personal
spheres. At a global scale, Google Earth and other corporate virtual
globes
may have dramatic consequences for the tracking and sorting of
individuals.
With CCTV, the controlling power of surveillance is in few hands. With
live,
high resolution imagery feeds from space in the near future, massive
surveillance may soon be available to everybody, a development whose
consequences we do not yet grasp. New means of surveillance are also
enabled
by social networks, in which individuals are publishing many intimate
personal details about themselves and others. Such social networks are
today
already frequently analysed by employers, marketing industry, law
enforcement or social engineering.
The aim of this conference stream is to discuss and analyse such privacy
risks of surveillance for humans and society as well as countermeasures
for
protecting the individuals rights to informational self-determination
from
multi-disciplinary perspectives.
We are therefore especially inviting the submissions of papers
addressing
privacy aspects in relation to topics such as (but not limited to):
* Surveillance technologies
* Corporate virtual globes (Google Earth and Microsoft Virtual Earth)
* Profiling & data mining
* Ambient Intelligence, RFID
* GPS, Location-Based Services
* Social Network Analysis
* ID cards
* Biometrics
* Data sharing
* Visual surveillance
* Workplace monitoring
* Communication interception
* Data retention
* Anonymity & Pseudonymity
* Privacy-enhancing technologies
* Privacy-enhancing Identity Management
