In an era when the internet can gather detailed information about citizens and mobile phones can target ads to them based on their location, consumers need a say in the policies and practices governing the use of their personal information. Research indicates Australians are concerned about the collection and use of their information. This project would explore what they are doing about it and what information handling policies and practices they support. The findings will provide a citizen perspective on deliberations over information and data handling policy as well as on ethical and legal debates about commercial monitoring at a time when the technology for capturing personal information continues to develop at a rapid pace.

在一个互联网可以收集关于公民的详细信息、手机可以根据他们的位置向他们投放广告的时代，消费者需要在管理他们个人信息使用的政策和做法方面拥有发言权。研究表明，澳大利亚人对收集和使用他们的信息感到担忧。这个项目将探索他们对此做了什么，以及他们支持哪些信息处理政策和实践。在获取个人信息的技术继续快速发展之际，调查结果将为公民提供关于信息和数据处理政策的审议以及关于商业监测的伦理和法律辩论的视角。
