Exposing other people to online social networks without obtaining their consent can harm their privacy and cause severe consequences! We call this incidence Multiparty Privacy Conflict or MPC.
In our recent study, we asked *“w**hat solutions would social network users-those who have experienced MPCs- co-design to address the problem of MPCs?”*
[Kavous](https://wp.unil.ch/persuasivelab/2020/07/kavous-salehzadeh-niksirat/) presents the details of the study in a [DESI](https://www.unil.ch/desi/en/home.html) seminar.
