Abstract
Dark patterns in online data gathering infringe on citizens' right to privacy and create a profound imbalance of power between citizens of digitalizing societies and institutional actors. In effect, even when users declare their concern about privacy, this attitude is often not reflected in actions. In the study reported here we found that Facebook users indeed perceive an imbalance of control over privacy: they feel it is their responsibility to protect it but at the same time they feel that they are less capable to fulfil this task than institutional actors. We also found that privacy concerns were a good predictor of actual effects of privacy protective behaviors, while at the same time they did not correlate with declarations about privacy protection, which suggest a need for careful measurement of such constructs. Our results are a first step towards a comprehensive research agenda on individuals’ attitudes towards institutional privacy.
