Abstract

Bruce Schneier’s recent article “The Internet is a surveillance state” summarises the state of Internet privacy as “Welcome to an Internet without privacy, and we've ended up here with hardly a fight.” We (the Semantic Web community) are responsible for the conception of technologies that enable large scale integration and mining of personal and public information. It is time that we accept our societal responsibility. PrivOn aims at raising awareness that the technologies the community are working on have global societal consequences. Vice versa, our research can be guided by determining a road map for desirable privacy goals.
