VIPER Project
Online privacy has become immensely important with the growth of technology and the expansion of communication. Social Media Networks have risen to the forefront of current communication trends. With the current trends in social media, the question now becomes how can we actively protect ourselves on these platforms? Users of social media networks share billions of images a day. Whether intentional or unintentional, users tend to share private information within these images. In this study, we investigate (1) the users' perspective of privacy, (2) the pervasiveness of privacy leaks on social media networks, and (3) the threats and dangers on these platforms.
