How can we protect our privacy in this digital era? This question is increasingly relevant to designers due to the emergence of ‘the internet of things’. Technology is now part of our daily items. Watches, clothing, cars, and houses are becoming ‘smart’ and connected to the ‘cloud’.
This book provides guidance on how to design to address concerns regarding privacy.
