تحقیقات در مورد پارادوکس حریم خصوصی نشان می دهد که کاربران فناوری اطلاعات و ارتباطات در مورد حریم خصوصی آنلاین خود نگرانی های جدی دارند اما اغلب بر این اساس رفتار نمی کنند. با این حال، بیشتر بینش ها بر اساس تحقیقات در بین کاربران غیرعادی است. مشخص نیست که آیا کاربرانی که در زمینه حریم خصوصی آنلاین و امنیت سایبری تخصص بالایی دارند، تفاوتهای مشابهی بین نگرانیها و رفتار نشان میدهند یا خیر. بنابراین ما با 20 کارشناس حریم خصوصی و امنیت سایبری در مورد نظرات آنها در مورد حریم خصوصی آنلاین در مورد برنامه های تلفن همراه مصاحبه کردیم. علیرغم دانش فنی آنها، نتایج نشان داد که ادراک کارشناسان و رفتارهای گزارش شده مشابه کاربران عادی است. بنابراین به نظر نمیرسد که فقدان دانش تخصصی توضیح معقولی برای پارادوکس حریم خصوصی در میان کاربران برنامههای تلفن همراه باشد.

Abstract
Research on the privacy paradox shows that ICT users have serious concerns about their online privacy but often do not behave accordingly. Most insights, however, are based on research among lay users. It is unclear whether users with high expertise on online privacy and cybersecurity would show similar discrepancies between concerns and behavior. We therefore interviewed 20 privacy and cybersecurity experts about their views on online privacy regarding mobile apps. Despite their technical knowledge, results showed that the experts’ perceptions and reported behaviors resembled those of lay users. A lack of specialized knowledge therefore does not seem to be a plausible explanation for the privacy paradox among mobile app users.
Introduction
Smartphones are omnipresent and have become an integral part of our daily lives. Applications (‘apps’) running on mobile devices support many of our daily activities, from providing information to pass time and entertainment, from maintaining social contacts to tracking physical activities, and from way-finding to buying products and services. By installing and using apps we provide vast amounts of personal data, which may either be stored on our phones or leave the local data storage. These data flows are not transparent and therefore difficult to understand. Research showed that 80% of the smartphone users have concerns about their personal data online (Deloitte, 2019). Despite these concerns, the number of app downloads is still on the rise and will probably exceed 250 billion by 2022 (Statista, 2019). Apparently, users’ privacy concerns do not influence the adoption and usage of apps; instead, they often seem to be overridden by users’ immediate practical, social, informational or entertainment needs and desires. The immediate benefits of downloading and using a particular app are salient and the possibility of privacy-compromising consequences in the future is easily accepted (Kehr et al., 2014, Pentina et al., 2016, Shklovski et al., 2014).
Conclusion
The purpose of this study was to examine the privacy perceptions and online behaviors of privacy and cybersecurity experts. Results show that experts’ privacy valuation and reported online behavior is comparable to those of lay users. Despite their technical background and thorough understanding of privacy risks, the majority of experts often does not engage in better precautions online. Instead, experts often engage in ‘hit-or-miss-analyses’ of apps, which makes them vulnerable to heuristic thinking, immediate gratifications, or optimistic bias, too. Our results suggest that general privacy knowledge and privacy awareness do not play a decisive role in the occurrence of the privacy paradox among users.
