  • Privacy and Security Issues Associated with Mobile Dating Applications
    2018 Proceedings of the Conference on Information Systems Applied Research ISSN: 2167-1508 Norfolk, Virginia v11 n 4823 Privacy and Security Issues Associated with Mobile Dating Applications Dr. Darren R. Hayes [email protected] Pace University Sapienza Università di Roma Christopher Snow [email protected] Pace University New York, NY Abstract Mobile dating application (app) usage has grown exponentially, while becoming more effective at connecting people romantically. Given the sensitive nature of the information users are required to provide, to effectively match a couple, our research sought to understand if app permissions and privacy policies were enough for a user to adequately determine the amount of personal information being collected and shared. Based on a static and dynamic analysis of three popular dating apps for Android and iPhone, our conclusion is that dating app developers are collecting and sharing personal information that extends well beyond publicly stated privacy policies, which tend to be vague at best. Furthermore, the security protocols, utilized by dating app developers, could be deemed relatively inadequate, thereby posing potential risk to both consumers and organizations. While social media companies have been the primary focus for discussions surrounding the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, our research findings indicate that third- party analytical companies and big data gatherers need to be more closely examined for potential violations. Keywords: GDPR, Privacy, Mobile Advertising, Big Data, Mobile Forensics, Android 1. INTRODUCTION two years, from 10% to 27% (Smith and Anderson, 2016). Therefore, it is important for There were 3.6 million applications (“apps”) on individuals to clearly understand the potential Google Play and 2.1 million iOS applications on security risks and privacy issues associated with Apple’s App Store in 2017 and a mere 8.5% of dating apps.

So what is it exactly? TikTok is a free social media app that lets you watch, create, and share videos -- often to a soundtrack of the top hits in music -- right from your phone. It was originally available as musical.ly in the U.S. but was rebranded when the two apps merged in August 2018. With more than 100 million users, Tik Tok is incredibly popular, owing in part to its slick mash-up of features from other kid favorites.

    FROM THE BLACK WE HEAR-- MARK (V.O.) Did you know there are more people with genius IQ’s living in China than there are people of any kind living in the United States? ERICA (V.O.) That can’t possibly be true. MARK (V.O.) It is. ERICA (V.O.) What would account for that? MARK (V.O.) Well, first, an awful lot of people live in China. But here’s my question: FADE IN: INT. CAMPUS BAR - NIGHT MARK ZUCKERBERG is a sweet looking 19 year old whose lack of any physically intimidating attributes masks a very complicated and dangerous anger. He has trouble making eye contact and sometimes it’s hard to tell if he’s talking to you or to himself. ERICA, also 19, is Mark’s date. She has a girl-next-door face that makes her easy to fall for. At this point in the conversation she already knows that she’d rather not be there and her politeness is about to be tested. The scene is stark and simple. MARK How do you distinguish yourself in a population of people who all got 1600 on their SAT’s? ERICA I didn’t know they take SAT’s in China. MARK They don’t. I wasn’t talking about China anymore, I was talking about me. ERICA You got 1600? MARK Yes. I could sing in an a Capella group, but I can’t sing. 2. ERICA Does that mean you actually got nothing wrong? MARK I can row crew or invent a 25 dollar PC.

A real need of the users, who use these apps and look for a relationship, is to find affinity with other users. Currently, there are many apps, which offer more interaction rather than swipe right or left. However, these apps do it based on affinity behavior and let the users use their flirting skills. They might have hobbies and interests in common. Nevertheless, it seems this is not enough. That is why this project aims to give an extra value to these kind of apps. Therefore, this project has as final user the people who look for a formal relationship.

  • The “Grown Folks” Guide to Popular Apps in Social Media
    THE “GROWN FOLKS” GUIDE TO POPULAR APPS IN SOCIAL MEDIA Technology moves fast and so does social media. This resource is dedicated to helping adults stay current with what’s new in the world of popular social media sites and applications (apps) for youth. The information provided is not exhaustive, but focuses on the trends and will be updated periodically as new apps and sites become popular. Like most tools, technology itself is neutral. All the sites listed can be used for many constructive purposes, linking youth to their friends and interacting in positive ways. Many youth use social media to create vibrant communities and to engage in social action and ally behavior. However, we know that sometimes youth (and adults) choose to use the same technology in profoundly negative ways. And people often use difference as a basis to undermine and disrespect others online. So it’s important to understand the technology and it’s important to teach the youth in your life skills, as well as your expectations, when they are online. Don’t assume that just because they know more than you about the specific apps that they know more than you about how to engage online in thoughtful and respectful ways. So, check out the list and the suggestions below for other ways adults can engage around the topic. THE LIST 4chan. An imageboard website where users generally post anonymously, 4chan is split into various, topic-specific boards and many popular memes have been originated on the site. Given its anonymous nature, there are very little rules for posting.

  • Australian Social Media Usage in 2020 and the Change in Behaviour Post COVID-19 Hello and Welcome to Our F21 Social Media Census!
    Social Media Census 2020 Australian Social Media Usage in 2020 and the Change in Behaviour Post COVID-19 Hello and welcome to our F21 Social Media Census! Undoubtedly, the last few months have been a wild ride for Australia, from the bushfires to COVID-19 and all of the economic uncertainty that has ensued due to these factors — our worlds, and daily behaviours and habits have been turned upside down. At the start of the year, we set out to run the social media census in partnership with the incredible market research company, Pureprofile. Our mission was to research the Australian landscape and measure our online behaviours, purchasing patterns, and most important, what our communities want to see and hear from us: the brands that market to them. We ran our survey in late January, did our data analysis and were ready for release, and then we all know what happened then! COVID-19 hit — and online behaviour changed, with eyeballs stuck to our screens for news updates, connecting with our families, and keeping ourselves entertained in lockdown. We felt it wasn’t fair to continue on as is and publish our census until we ran an update, and here we are today. The report you will read through today contains valuable and hands on learnings from 2 census reports, one research survey ran in January, and a follow-up research report ran in June. In this report, we uncover insights across the key areas of social media consumption and behaviour patterns across Australians. From the platform usage & functionality through to where Australians are purchasing, what they are purchasing and what messaging from a brand is most likely to influence their ongoing relationship with that brand.
