The "game" (training) that asks you to analyse "privacy threats" is a bit strange. It feels like it takes two random excerpts from a privacy policy and asks you to compare them, but with this, it feels like it is missing some global information, you are just looking at local details.
Eg one policy might be disclosing what they do (but its actually relevant to collect data, eg password manager) while the other just says "no we don't collect anything". In this case one feels like its a better option, but its not exactly the same situation, its missing some context. I feel like this could potentially bias ratings.
I'm not sure if you could add in extra information with some of that global information, eg the type of service, classifying different "parts" of the privacy policy etc.
- raynr 7y agoYeah, it's not comparing like for like. Feels like the system is trying to collect training data from users. To elaborate on your last sentence, context is critical in assessing whether a clause is pro- or anti- privacy. Is the collection of information critical to the provision of the service? What is collected, and how much? And so on.
- mceachen 7y agoAgreed with parent and gp. I gave up with the 10 questions, as the sentence comparisons were almost comically incomparable. I fear your model is going to be a random number generator.
