Bystander privacy in lifelogging

Abstract

Lifelogging, a technique for digitally gathering every moment in life using wearable cameras, is a growing phenomenon. However, it is important to remember that in addition to recording their own lives, users are recording others as well, which raises privacy issues around lifelogging from a bystander’s perspective. This warrants conducting bystander-focused privacy studies in an uncontrolled environment, by reaping upon the experience of practitioners from multiple domains, but not limited to, urban science, sociology, privacy, usability, psychology, and law, to design such studies.
