Trust and Control -The Future of Privacy Online

Event Interactive 2011
Format Panel
Organizer Colin McKay – Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada
Description Last year at SXSWi, danah boyd proclaimed that privacy was, in fact, not dead. So what’s next? In an age of Facebook, Foursquare and Formspring, our perceptions of privacy are shifting. We check-in to our local coffeeshop to take advantage of the 10% discount that comes with holding a Super User badge. We indiscriminately store our most important photos, videos, and documents in a place we call “the cloud”. And yet, while we want to share information about ourselves with our families, our friends, and the world beyond, we still want full control over how our online identities are shaped. We care intensely about how we present ourselves online and we want to believe that the ability to shape-shift, create multiple identities, remain anonymous and otherwise present ourselves online as we would like is ours alone. As much as the present digital world is about sharing and being social, it’s also about being private. The future of privacy increasingly lies in trust and control over our personal information. This panel will look at what the future of privacy means for content producers, application developers, designers, and others in the digital creative community.
