Hide and seek: location sharing practices with social media

Published: 07 September 2010 Publication History

Abstract

This paper presents a multi-pronged study of users' location-sharing practices in the context of online social networks. The contribution of this study is two-fold: first it presents a series of insights relating to location-sharing practices, and second it highlights the use of third-person scenarios as a useful method for eliciting privacy concerns and potentially educating users.
