Vision Paper: Enabling Privacy for the Paranoids
Summary: Vision paper argues privacy must be controlled by individuals, not trusted corporations, criticizing P3P and Hippocratic Databases as trust-based solutions. Proposes radical rethinking of data models, release semantics, and lifecycle management to restore user-level control over personal data across apps and services.
