최근 빅데이터와 같은 디지털 환경으로 다양한 정보 매체를 통해 정보와 지식을 생산되고 있는 반면 이렇게 생산된 정보가 법적인 테두리를 벗어나 무분별하게 확대되고 재생산 되는등 정보의 역기능 역시 커지고 있다. 특히, 개인정보의 경우 기존의 목적 외에 사용되거나 잘못된 형태로 사용이 되면 피해가 발생된다. 일반적으로 사용자가 위험을 감수하더라도 개인 스스로 자신의 정보를 제공하거나 공유하고 있는 이유는 기업이나 조직이 개인정보를 안전하게 지켜줄 것이라고 믿기 때문이다. 본 연구는 정보 프라이버시에 대한 위험과 이를 억제하는 정책이 개인정보 제공의도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 분석하여 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 정보 프라이버시 위험과 정책이 정보 프라이버시 염려와 신뢰, 개인정보 제공의도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 영향도를 분석하였다. 연구결과, 빅데이터 시대에 정보 프라이버시 위험을 낮추고 정책을 명확하게 제시한다면 정보 프라이버시 염려는 낮아지고 기업에 대한 신뢰가 높아져 개인정보를 제공할 것이라는 것을 밝혔다.

This study examined the overall relationship between information privacy concern, need for uniqueness (NFU), and disclosure behavior to explain the personal factors that drive data-sharing on Facebook. The results of an online survey conducted with 222 Facebook users show that among diverse data that social media users disclose online, four distinct factors are identified: basic personal data, private data, personal opinions, and personal photos. In general, there is a negative relationship between privacy concern and a positive relationship between the NFU and the willingness to self-disclose information. Overall, the NFU was a better predictor of willingness to disclose information than privacy concern, gender, or age. While privacy concern has been identified as an influential factor when users evaluate social networking sites, the findings of this study contribute to the literature by demonstrating that an individual's need to manifest individualization on social media overrides privacy concerns.

This paper has studied whether cultural factors have an effect on privacy concern of Internet users in Korea and China. The result has shown that power distance, individualism, uncertainty avoidance, and long-term orientation are positively related to privacy concern, while masculinity is negatively related to privacy concern. This study has also found some similarities and differences between the two countries. First, privacy concern of Korean Internet users is significantly higher than that of Chinese users. Second, individualism and uncertainty avoidance significantly affect privacy concern in both Korea and China, although individualism in Korea has stronger effect than that in China. Third, long term orientation has a significant effect in only Korea while power distance is significant only in China. These results suggest that an online company doing businesses in multiple countries should have country-specific privacy policies to deal with the privacy concern of Internet users in different countries.

Internet privacy is named as one of the major barriers to the expansion and further development of e-commerce. This study is to identify the antecedents to Internet privacy concerns, to investigate the relationship of the antecedents and the perceived trust and to validate Internet privacy's effect on the perceived trust. A conceptual model which identifies Internet literacy and perceived vulnerability as antecedents to Internet privacy concern is proposed and tested based on the sample of 276 Internet users. Empirical findings show that Internet literacy affect Internet privacy concern negatively while perceived vulnerability affect positively. Also perceived vulnerability's effect on and privacy concern's effect on perceived trust has both directional negative support. Implications and further research agenda are provided with the limitation of the study.

People use social network services (SNSs) for various purposes, for example, to share information, to express themselves, and to strengthen social relationships with others. Meanwhile, problems of personal information leakage and privacy infringement become a social issue and thus information privacy concerns about inappropriate collection and use of personal information increase in SNSs (e.g., Facebook). Although people have privacy concerns in SNSs, they behave in a contradictory way, voluntarily presenting themselves and disclosing personal information. This phenomenon is called 'privacy paradox'. Using dual factor theory, this study investigates the phenomenon of privacy paradox by looking into enablers (e.g., self-presentation) and inhibitors (e.g., information privacy concern) for continuous use of Facebook that can co-exist independently of each other. It also includes antecedents of self-presentation (i.e., narcissism, need for affiliation, involvement, and self-efficacy) and those of information privacy concern (i.e., previous experience of privacy infringement, privacy awareness, and privacy control). The results show that most hypothesized relationships were supported. These findings provide strategic implications for SNS providers who want to promote continuous use of SNS. Under the current circumstances in which enhanced privacy policies are required, this study would be a useful reference for future research on information privacy issues in SNSs.

Privacy paradox is a paradoxical behavior that provides personal information even though you are concerned about privacy. Social media users are also often concerned about their personal information exposure. It is even reluctant to describe personal information in profile. However, some users describe their personal information in detail on their profile, provide it freely when others request it, or post their own personal information. The survey was conducted using Google Docs centered on Facebook users. Structural equation model analysis was used for hypothesis testing. As an independent variable, we use personal information infringement experiences. As a mediator, we use privacy indifference, privacy concern, and the relationship with the act of providing personal information. Social media users have become increasingly aware of the fact that they can not distinguish between the real world and online world by strengthening their image and enhancing their image in the process of strengthening ties, sharing lots of information and enjoying themselves through various relationships. Therefore, despite the high degree of privacy indifference and high degree of privacy concern, the phenomenon of privacy paradox is also present in social media.

Purpose The study analyzed the factors affecting continuance use and self-disclosure in the SNS(social networking service) context based on a dual-factor model. As SNS users have concerned privacy for a long time, privacy concern affects continuous use and self-disclosure. In details, concern over privacy may have a stronger effect on self-disclosure than on continuance use as users' personal information can be more exposed during posting their dailies and photos. Design/Methodology/Approach SNS benefits, trust in SNS providers, and social influence are served as the key enablers and privacy concern as the inhibitor. Moreover, the relative impacts of SNS benefits and privacy concern on continuance use and self-disclosure were analysed in this study. From the data of 327 Facebook users, the researchers tested proposed theoretical model by using PLS. Findings Users' continuance intention and self-disclosure behavior are differently affected by different antecedents. Trust in SNS provider had a significant effect on self-disclosure intention, while it has no significant effect on continuance intention. Concern over privacy was negatively related to self-disclosure intention, while it was positively associated with continuance intention.
