Abstract: Online social networks (OSNs) brought the voluntary disclosure of personal information to the mainstream, rendering the potential intrusion of privacy a critical and acute concern. The main objective of this roundtable is to address the need for a paradigm shift in understanding and addressing users’ privacy risks in the Web 2.0 environment with a focus on OSNs. The discussion themes are to: (1) deepen the theoretical understanding of privacy in the context of OSNs, (2) identify privacy intervention strategies for users to prevent privacy threats, and (3) promote privacy awareness.
