Abstract:

The past decade has brought unprecedented developments in technology and these increasingly impact on our daily lives. Technological advances define how we live; from how we communicate and are entertained to how we access government services. In order to understand technology adoption and acceptability it is important to consider how the technology fits with and supports human endeavours and activities. We report findings from the Trustguide project (Lacohee et al, 2006) that took a "citizen-centric"approach to exploring issues of trust, security and privacy in ICT based applications and services covering a broad a spectrum UK citizens. ©2008 HFT 2008.
