Towards a Value-driven Explainable Agent for Collective Privacy

Abstract

Online social networks lack support for the collaborative management of access control. This is crucial for content that may involve multiple users such as photos, as this lack of support causes conflicts that lead to privacy violations. Previous research proposed collaborative mechanisms to support users in these cases, but most of these attempts fail to satisfy some desirable requirements, such as explainability, role-agnosticism, adaptability, and being utilityand value-driven at the same time. In this paper, we outline an agent architecture that has been designed to meet all these requirements.
