Digital trust and security seminar

23 Feb 2024

Kieron O’Hara - The Seven Veils of Privacy

Date and time: 20 March, 12:30–14:30

In his recent book “The Seven Veils of Privacy”, Kieron O’Hara sets out a rigorous and comprehensive framework for understanding debates about privacy and our rights to it. Much of the conflict around privacy comes from a failure to recognise divergent perspectives. Some people argue about human rights, some about social conventions, others about individual preferences and still others about information and data processing. As a result, 'privacy' has become the focus of competing definitions, leading some to denounce the 'disarray' in the field.
