Social Networking: The Challenges of Privacy and Openness. An event co-hosted by TRUSTe and the Center for Democracy and Technology as part of their Internet Policy Series. Discussion includes users' ownership of data, and what the users actually own. Facebook bases its model of data ownership on the conception of the Fourth Amendment in the United States, in which a photo that is taken of a person on a street belongs to the person who took the photo and not the person in the photo. However, Facebook permits people to un-tag themselves in photos when others have tagged them. Issues of data ownership are still being worked out. There is a team of people at Google called the Data Liberation Front that tries to make it easy for people to take out data they have put in and take it somewhere else.

Social Networking: The Challenges of Privacy and Openness. An event co-hosted by TRUSTe and the Center for Democracy and Technology as part of their Internet Policy Series. Discussion includes when Facebook will follow a template in which the company is limiting retention of data internally. The more companies like Facebook retain information, the more susceptible they are to having to cooperate with government requests for information, which Facebook would rather not do. Heretofore, Facebook has only given aggregated information to third parties (as opposed to personally identifiable information).

Social Networking: The Challenges of Privacy and Openness. An event co-hosted by TRUSTe and the Center for Democracy and Technology as part of their Internet Policy Series. Discussion includes the need for regulation of aggregation of users' information. People have a desire on Facebook to present a digital identity to the world, which means associating with certain brands and companies. Targeted ads are a response to the desire to present a digital identity of oneself. There are front end and back end privacy issues. Front end refers to people's habits in regard to information they are sharing. Back end refers to providers of services mining information.

Social Networking: The Challenges of Privacy and Openness. An event co-hosted by TRUSTe and the Center for Democracy and Technology as part of their Internet Policy Series. Discussion includes idea that it is "in [Facebook's] DNA" not to sell personally identifiable information, and they will never do it. Companies that do "not want to be a flash in the pan and gone in a quarter" will usually not sell such information. Netflix is releasing a dataset. There may or may not be structural barriers that prevent privacy and targeted ads from coexisting. There is "value to create in showing somebody ads they care about." Just because somebody makes information public does not mean they expect it to be aggregated.

Social Networking: The Challenges of Privacy and Openness. An event co-hosted by TRUSTe and the Center for Democracy and Technology as part of their Internet Policy Series. Discussion includes the importance of ensuring it is as hard as possible for somebody outside a company such as Google to obtain access to users' information. Google has stringent regulations in place that keep employees from accessing certain information. Users worry that companies like Facebook and Google will use their personal information for financial gain. Google strives not to violate users' trust because if they did they would suffer as a company.
