I remember that as well – it was a troubling moment, one I won\’t forget soon. Thanks for the links, especially to the contextual integrity paper..that will be very useful to me.

Hope things are great at Yale!

I remember that well, and it actually came up in a discussion today at the ISP about reputation management online.

You remember at the IINW conference where a member of the audience recounted details gleaned from a google search of the speaker’s name, including that she “consorted with lesbians.” Her parents were in the audience. McGeveran nails the strange vindictiveness of those with different privacy norms on those with less restrictive norms. Context indeed.

Also, hi!
