Nissenbaum (Helen)

Helen Nissenbaum is a philosopher and expert in ethics, focusing on privacy and technology. She developed the concept of "contextual integrity," which suggests that privacy is maintained when information flows in ways appropriate to specific social situations. In other words, what privacy means depends on the context—what's acceptable in one setting might not be in another. Her work helps us understand how digital systems and data sharing should respect social norms, ensuring that personal information is handled properly according to its context.
