Digital Privacy: Theory, Technologies, and Practices

Privacy is here considered to be the indefeasible right of individuals to control they ways in which their personal information is obtained, processed, distributed, and used by any other entity. Computer scientists, statisticians, and other technical researchers consider such privacy from such perspectives as privacy-preserving cryptographic protocols, uncertainty and indistinguishability, lessons from behavioral economics, and surveillance of emergent associations.
