Abstract

Large quantities of personal data are now being generated, collated and processed through young people's uses of social media. Third parties increasingly use these data to profile, predict and position the individuals they are associated with. These developments have prompted calls for individuals to adopt more informed and critical stances toward how and why their data is being used -- i.e., to become vigilant 'data citizens'. Against this background, this paper reports on an ongoing project that explores the extent to which social media users are aware of their personal data and its attendant issues and uses. Drawing on participatory design research with four diverse groups of young people (aged 14 to 18 years), this paper investigates the possibilities of making third party (re)uses of personal data openly available in digitized form for young people to access, interpret and use to develop counter-practices and resistant tactics. The results of these interventions -- while only partially successful -- provide valuable insights into the technical, informatic, organizational and social issues surrounding how young people engage with social media, and how academic concerns over data relate to everyday lived experiences of social media use in a digital age.

“我的数据,我的错……”:青少年对个人资料的理解及(反)做法
现在,大量的个人数据正在通过年轻人对社交媒体的使用而产生、整理和处理。第三方越来越多地使用这些数据来分析、预测和定位与他们相关的个人。这些发展促使人们呼吁个人对他们的数据被使用的方式和原因采取更明智和批判性的立场,即成为警惕的“数据公民”。在此背景下,本文报告了一个正在进行的项目,该项目探讨了社交媒体用户对他们的个人数据及其随之而来的问题和用途的了解程度。通过对四个不同群体的年轻人(14至18岁)进行参与式设计研究,本文探讨了以数字化形式公开提供第三方(重新)使用个人数据的可能性,供年轻人访问、解释和使用,以制定反实践和抵抗策略。这些干预措施的结果——虽然只是部分成功——为年轻人如何使用社交媒体提供了有价值的技术、信息、组织和社会问题,以及学术对数据的关注与数字时代社交媒体使用的日常生活体验之间的关系。
