"Study Finds Wi-Fi Location Affects Online Privacy Behavior"

A team of scientists conducted a study to see if a person's location offline affects how they behave online in regard to privacy. The study also explores changes in online privacy behavior resulting from the presence of a virtual private network (VPN) logo, the provision of terms and conditions by the wireless provider, and more. The study was conducted by observing the online behavior of participants from Amazon Mechanical Turk in four different types of physical locations, including a coffee shop, a university, an Airbnb, and home. Scientists observed unethical behavior, ethical behavior, and the disclosure of private information online. This article continues to discuss the purpose and findings of this study.
