What is “Cloud Computing?”Background
Privacy is a complex, multifaceted concept Although privacy been an important topic throughout history, recent advances in
information technology have raised levels of concern to an all-time high Scholars have conceptualized “privacy” in many different ways:
“The right to be left alone” (Warren and Brandeis, 1890) “A self-serving economic good” (Richard Posner, 1978) “Contextual integrity” (Helen Nissenbaum, 2003) A taxonomy of different, yet related problems (Solove, 2009)
Different conceptions of privacy Privacy as a negative freedom – freedom from something, rather than a right to something else Secrecy paradigm – privacy applies to things that are secret Invasion paradigm – privacy violation is an invasion of a specific interest Inaccessibility – privacy is where the subject is inaccessible to others Privacy viewed as constitutional and human right

What is “Cloud Computing?”Research Background In the U.S., the legal system surrounding information privacy is based on fair information
practices (FIPs) FIPs are an internationally recognized set of policies for collecting, managing, and distributing personal
information There are five main principles used in the U.S.:
1. Notice
2. Choice/Consent3. Access to data/participation4. Data Integrity/Security5. Enforcement (i.e. self, third-party, or government regulation)
Today, cloud service providers claim that their customers are providing informed consent by accepting privacy policies and terms of service agreements
By clicking “accept”, consumers are providing cloud service providers with legal rights to use their information for a variety of purposes
Informed Consent- “the process by which a fully informed user participates in decisions about his or her personal data” (van der Geest et al., 2005, p. 7)
Five principles of informed consent:1. Disclosure, Comprehension, Voluntariness, Competence, Agreement
