It's time to rethink what privacy means in the AI era. In our new piece for @waccglobal Media Development, we (@LemiBaruh & @MichaelaPopescu) propose “Privacy as a Right to Becoming” .

🧵2/4 We investigated this question through a secondary analysis of a national survey conducted in 33 cities in Turkey. While close to a 100% of the respondents reported their past and present health status, 25% did not report their expectations about their future health.

🧵4/4 But superstitions play a role too. Superstitious respondents were more hesitant to report health predictions, especially if they frequently thought about the future - possibly fearing that discussing their expectations could jinx their health, temp fate. 🧿

🧵 3/4 People with ongoing health issues tend to be more fatalistic, making them less likely to make health predictions. So, current health challenges shape how confident we feel about making predictions about their future wellbeing.

Happy 2025 and🚨new publication. Why do some people refuse to predict their future health? We (@lbaruh, Celia K. Naivar Sen, @zcemalcilar, @tarcankumkale) explore how the answer might lie in superstition, fatalism, and how we cope with uncertainty. 🧵1/4 https://t.co/O5tw1YyDlj

@MichaelaPopescu @BigDataSoc @CSUSBITSVP @CSUSBNews Let's turn this new article announcement into a🧵, shall we? https://t.co/8wFgBJ9Qwo In our interviews, data professionals expressed a sense of powerlessness and disillusionment akin to the "privacy cynicism" experienced by consumers of tech giants. 1/4 @SIMLAB_KU @UQCom_Arts

@MichaelaPopescu @BigDataSoc @CSUSBITSVP @CSUSBNews @SIMLAB_KU @UQCom_Arts 2/4 This "privacy cynicism" among data professionals may lead to a spiral of resignation . Diminished efficacy can curb their advocacy for enhanced privacy measures. This limits data subjects' access to meaningful privacy options, potentially worsening their own apathy.

[LemiBaruh ➡️ @[email protected] @lbaruh]

@MichaelaPopescu @BigDataSoc @CSUSBITSVP @CSUSBNews @SIMLAB_KU @UQCom_Arts 3/4 The consequences of "privacy cynicism" could be far-reaching. Without proactive efforts to address it, we risk perpetuating a cycle where data professionals and data subjects alike feel powerless to protect privacy, exacerbating the challenges of privacy self-management.

Here's a dystopian vision of the future: A real announcement I recorded on the Beijing-Shanghai bullet train. (I've subtitled it so you can watch in silence.)

2 doz Sinovac ve 2 doz Pfizer/Biontech olmuş yaşlılara ve sağlık personeline ta bilmemhangi tarihte kalan Sinovac aşıları gerekçe gösterilerek 3. doz Pfizer/Biontech yapılmıyor. Bu sebeple gençlerimiz yaşlılarımızdan daha iyi korumaya sahip. Bu hemen değişmeli. Omicron geliyor.

When exposed to a story where Dr. Türeci was mentioned, males who hold stronger traditional gender role beliefs evaluated the vaccine to be less effective and safe. Their intention to get vaccinated was also lower than men who did not subscribe to traditional gender roles. 5/6
