What seems to be a quick, technical fix to a complex problem could inadvertently increase digital divides, and create a host of other difficult, complex problems.
This report looks at the challenges, consequences, and dilemmas that might arise if these technologies were to become a norm. However, if these solutions are to be widely implemented, in the operating systems and hardware of devices, in social media platforms and within news organizations, then they have the potential to change the fabric of how people communicate, inform what media is trusted, and name who gets to decide. Lead author: Gabi Ivens An increasing number of verified-at- capture tools and other tools for tracing authenticity provenance and edits/manipulations over time are being developed to counter misinformation, disinformation, deepfakes, shallowfakes and other 'fake news' and toprovide content validation in a time where challenges to trust are increasing. Furthermore, we suggest future research directions. We also offer simple-to-implement recommendations for OSN users which can improve their security and privacy when using these platforms. In addition, we present an overview of existing solutions that can provide better protection, security, and privacy for OSN users. In this paper we present a thorough review of the different security and privacy risks which threaten the well-being of OSN users in general, and children in particular. These risks become even more severe when the users are children. This information, if put into the wrong hands, can be used to harm users both in the virtual world and in the real world. According to recent studies, OSN users readily expose personal and private details about themselves, such as relationship status, date of birth, school name, email address, phone number, and even home address. Many online social network (OSN) users are unaware of the numerous security risks that exist in these networks, including privacy violations, identity theft, and sexual harassment, just to name a few. In this extended culture industry, participation unfolds not only in the co‐creation of media content and software‐based products, but also in the development and defense of distinctive media practices." The media industry undergoes a shift from creating content to providing platforms for user driven social interactions and user‐generated content. Schäfer’s research into hacking, fan communities and Web 2.0 applications demonstrates how the dynamic of innovation, control and interaction have shifted the boundaries of the traditional culture industry into the user domain. This thoughtful study casts a fresh light on the shaping of user participation in the context of, among others, popular discourse in and around new media. Furthermore, lay people and amateurs have been enthusiastically greeted as heroes of the digital era. The computer and particularly the Internet have been represented as enabling technologies, turning consumers into users and users into producers.
"New online technologies have brought with them a great promise of freedom.
