"Bridging the Gap between Privacy and Design"

http://j.mp/NpB7Xm  (SSRN)

   "This article explores the gap between privacy and design in the
    context of "lateral privacy"- privacy issues arising among users of a
    service rather than from the service provider - on social networking
    sites (SNSs) and other platforms by analyzing the privacy concerns
    lodged against the introduction of Facebook's News Feed in 2006. Our
    analysis reveals that the dominant theory of privacy put forth by
    regulators, privacy as individual control, offers little insight into
    the experiences of privacy violation claimed by users. More
    importantly, we show that this theory is ill equipped to guide the
    design of SNSs and platforms to avoid similar harms in the future."
