Informing The Future of Data Protection in Smart Homes

17 Jun 2019  ·  Kraemer Martin J, Seymour William, Binns Reuben, Van Kleek Max, Flechais Ivan ·

Recent changes to data protection regulation, particularly in Europe, are changing the design landscape for smart devices, requiring new design techniques to ensure that devices are able to adequately protect users' data. A particularly interesting space in which to explore and address these challenges is the smart home, which presents a multitude of difficult social and technical problems in an intimate and highly private context. This position paper outlines the motivation and research approach of a new project aiming to inform the future of data protection by design and by default in smart homes through a combination of ethnography and speculative design.
