2/10

Brussels, December 21-22, 2011

WP Objectives

Integrate and develop research on distributed

social nets (eg Diaspora and Footlights), partialidentities (PrimeLife), privacy-protective sensornetworks (FRESNEL), privacy beliefs andbehaviours (PVNets), online trust and reputation

mechanisms Integrate research efforts, scientific concepts and

methodologies from computer science,psychology, anthropology, sociology, political

science, statistics, graph theory, behaviouraleconomics and law

Investigate trade-offs between anonymity andaccountability, and how decentralized systems can

protect against spam, offensive content andI

Trust and Reputation mechanisms based also onthe research results of an organised workshop byJRA5 on these topics, combining frameworks frompolitical science, computer science, Internet

studies, economics and law into a unified InternetScience view of the field [month 12]

Interdependencies with other WPs

JRA2 (incorporating privacy by design).

JRA4 (governance and regulation, particularly theEU data protection framework)

JRA6 (allowing users to participate in virtualcommunities without over-exposing their personal

data) JRA8 (where users must be reassured that energy-

saving technology is not invading their privacy)
