论文摘要
房屋中的互联设备代表了潜在的严重隐私威胁，因为它们不受限制地进入人们生活中最个人的空间。先前的工作表明，尽管担心这种设备，但人们通常缺乏足够的意识，理解或采取有效行动的手段。为了探索直接支持这种需求的新工具的潜力，我们开发了Aretha，这是一种将网络分类器，个人辅导员和防火墙结合起来的隐私助理技术调查，以使最终用户具有控制房屋披露的知识和机制。我们在六个星期内在三个家庭中部署了Aretha，目的是了解这种功能的组合如何使用户能够通过其设备来了解数据披露，形成受过教育的隐私偏好，并阻止不需要的数据流。该调查及其新颖的效力和限制的用户共同适应，找到了新的控制机制，并提出了新的方法，以应对重新获得互联房屋隐私的挑战。
Connected devices in the home represent a potentially grave new privacy threat due to their unfettered access to the most personal spaces in people's lives. Prior work has shown that despite concerns about such devices, people often lack sufficient awareness, understanding, or means of taking effective action. To explore the potential for new tools that support such needs directly we developed Aretha, a privacy assistant technology probe that combines a network disaggregator, personal tutor, and firewall, to empower end-users with both the knowledge and mechanisms to control disclosures from their homes. We deployed Aretha in three households over six weeks, with the aim of understanding how this combination of capabilities might enable users to gain awareness of data disclosures by their devices, form educated privacy preferences, and to block unwanted data flows. The probe, with its novel affordances-and its limitations-prompted users to co-adapt, finding new control mechanisms and suggesting new approaches to address the challenge of regaining privacy in the connected home.
