> “12. Cross-Cultural Extrapolation of Privacy-Oriented Human-Technology Interactions
> It is well understood that human-technology interactions are a critical aspect of cybersecurity and privacy. However, these studies have largely been conducted within specific socio-cultural environments (most notably, groups within the United States that enjoy relatively broad access to sophisticated technology). This effort looks to create greater understandings of human- technology interaction for privacy amongst communities that have not previously been examined. This may include foreign communities that have critical privacy needs (e.g., due to living under pervasive state surveillance). Means of quantitatively extrapolating from such studies of one population to another are of interest in order to help broaden the scope of rigorous evaluation.”
